The European Conference on Composite Materials (ECCM-4) will be
held for the first time, in Germany after the successes of previous
meetings in France and England. The meeting will take place in
Stuttgart which is capital of B aden-Wtirttemberg and a centre for
new technologies in Germany. Amongst these new technologies,
composite materials play a dominant role and it is the aim of the
conference to promote scientific discussion of these materials.
Polymer matrix composites are well established and lie at the
centre of interest so that a great number of contributions forms on
plastic matrix and high temperature resin matrix composites. New
developments in the area of reinforcement fibres will be discussed
in a special section of the poster session. Metal matrix and
ceramic matrix composites as well as carbon fibre reinforced carbon
are strong candidates for future structural materials. These
classes of composites receive wide interest at the conference. The
conference organisers received more than 250 abstracts, from which
about 160 contributed papers from 20 countries were accepted. In
addition to the' 80 oral presentations five invited papers on
topics of special interest will be given. The recycling problem of
fiber reinforced composites will be discussed in a plenary paper.
In the name of all those who were involved in preparation and
organisation of this conference, we hope that fruitful discussions
but also the social gathering will contribute to further steps in
deepening the European cooperation in this fascinating composite
research field.
Fibre reinforced composite materials are showing sustained growth
in an ever widening range of applications from food trays to
spacecraft as well as contributing to resolving environmental
problems, including enabling the forthcoming hydrogen economy to be
realised. This second edition of Fundamentals of Fibre Reinforced
Composite Materials has been fully updated throughout, providing an
authoritative and modern introduction to the topic with a brief
history of composite development, a review of composite
applications, manufacture and markets, types of fibres and matrices
used, and their properties with a detailed introduction into the
computer simulation of composite behaviour. With extensive sets of
sample problems accompanying each chapter, this book is ideally
suited to undergraduate and graduate students of materials science,
structural, mechanical, and aeronautical engineering, polymer
science, metallurgy, and other courses. It will also be of use as a
reference to researchers and engineers working with composite
materials and material scientists in general. Features: Presents
thorough discussions on composite history, composite applications
and markets, types of fibres and resins used, and their respective
properties Relates mathematical concepts to the structure of the
material under discussion leading to the quantitative evaluation of
safety factors Provides numerous sets of sample problems in each
chapter

Dr A.R. BUNSELL President de l'Association Europeenne des Materiaux
Composites Apres Ie succes des deux precedentes editions, Ie
troisieme Congres Europeen sur les Materiaux Composites, ECCM-3,
s'annonce de tres haut niveau. La premiere reunion s'est tenue a
BORDEAUX en septembre1985 tandis que la seconde, jumelee avec Ie
sixieme Congres International sur les Materiaux Composites, ICCM-6
eut lieu a LONDRES en juillet 1987. Ces deux reunions ont
clairement montre I'importance de la recherche sur les materiaux
composites en Europe. Elles ont pu rassembler les chercheurs venus
de toute l'Europe et du monde entier. Ce troisieme congres nous
ramene a BORDEAUX et souligne I'interet porte aux materiaux
composites a BORDEAUX et en Aquitaine, haut lieu d'application des
technologies de pointe. La creation a BORDEAUX de l'Association
Europeenne des Materiaux Composites, A.E.M.C., a ete Ie fait a la
fois d'une volonte politique et d'une prise de conscience locales
ainsi que de la presence d'un tissu industriel favorable au
developpement de celie activite. Le travail assidu du comite
scientifique, compose de specialistes europeens, grace a qui les
sujets traites et les articles sont varies et de haut niveau, nous
assure de la qualite du compte rendu de ECCM-3 qui comptera
desormais parmi les ouvrages de reference. Plus notable encore, est
Ie fait que ECCM-3 contribue a la construction d'une grande
communaute internationale des composites, composee de chercheurs
venus du monde entier.

Handbook of Properties of Textile and Technical Fibres, Second
Edition introduces tensile properties and failure and testing of
fibers, also examining tensile properties and the failure of
natural fibers, such as cotton, hemp, flax, agave, wool and silk.
Next, the book discusses the tensile properties and failure of
synthetic fibers, ranging from polyamide, polyester, polyethylene
and carbon fibers. Chapters provide a general background of the
fiber, including its manufacture, microstructure, factors that
affect tensile properties and methods to improve tensile failure.
With its distinguished editor and international contributors, this
book is an important reference for fiber scientists, textile
technologists, engineers and academics.
