Mechanics of Composite Structures

"...the book is a uniquely successful sythesis of writing. On the one hand the book is written clearly, with practical users in mind. On the other hand, the text is complete and is based on sound fundamental principles...this comprehensive book has not just become either a collection of formulae or lengthy derivations...It also resulted in numerical examples that not only illustrate solution techniques but shed light on the underlying principles." Journal of Computational and Applied Mechanics

"Overall, the book will be of practical use to final year undergraduate enginering students, researchers on composites and practicing engineers seeking to acquire knoledge of mechanics of composite materials and of their applications." The Aeronautical Journal, C. Soutis
