Review: One of the Best Books on Composites - The book arrived in perfect condition and was carefully packaged. As for the content, I believe it is one of the best texts on composite materials. It contains a wealth of information, explanations, and methods that are not easily found elsewhere. I would highly recommend it both to those approaching the subject for the first time and as a valuable reference for professionals.
Review: Straightforward, practical, comprehensive & integrated. Exactly what the industry needed. - The author presents the complex subject of composite structures design & analysis in a straightforward manner, such that any practicing engineer, researcher, or student can understand on the first read. Among plethora of composites books out there, this one truly sets itself apart in a number of ways. First of all, unlike other books, I have found this one to be much easier to read and follow. Complex theories and concepts are unpacked with easily understood explanations in a straightforward manner, and all the figures and plots are self-explanatory. Also, unlike other books, the nomenclatures and notations are consistent, make sense, and are easy to follow. This is especially helpful when you're trying to follow the complex matrix manipulations in the lamination theory. Secondly, the book looks at the composites in a comprehensive and integrated way. It has dedicated chapters and discussions to the classical lamination theory, practical composites design and analysis methods, testing, manufacturing, repair, fatigue, and DADT of composites, and more. The rich discussions also provide in-depth understanding of how one aspect of composites may influence the others (ex. how manufacturing faults and damages may influence structural integrity, and therefore, your analysis, and how different levels of structural testing tie into failure analysis, etc.). This has the effect of teaching you to think about the composites as a holistic and integrated set of engineering problems, instead of disjointed ones. In addition, the chapters are ordered in a way that new concepts build on previous chapters. Lastly, this book is truly unique in that it has clear explanations on how composites are different from metals. Chapter 2, in particular, is dedicated to this topic, with more specific discussions offered in pertinent chapters. Readers can benefit from these and learn to visualize the less-than-intuitive behaviors of the composites. If you're used to dealing with metallic structures and are transitioning to the composites, this is a must read. My guess is that the book will soon become an industry standard, similar to Flabel or Bruhn in metallic structures analysis. There is no need to buy multiple composites books anymore. This one can replace them all.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Book!
*by T***J on July 21, 2018*

Firstly, let me state that book arrived in good shape thanks to Amazon. It's a hardcover and is printed on good quality paper which will last for years in your reference library. Lets get to the review of the book itself. The book presents an excellent overview of composite laminated structures' analyses, specially for the aerospace industry. The book doesn't delve in to analytical procedures, although several simple examples are provided to illustrate the methodology of application of expression/equations. The value of the book lies in the author's vast experience with the aerospace industry composite analysis methods and the subsequent capturing of the same in to the book. The explanations are concise and in only a few instances, I found a better explanation or more clarity was required. Another value of the book is presenting various practical aspects of analysis which differs from the academic methods presented in other composite text books. Several insights which may be subtle but very important are provided which may be of great help. I have to state that book presents the important & relevant content for each topic but doesn't go in to very deeper details. Using the information from the book, the candidate can explore other resources to get a deeper understanding. Although I was quite familiar with composite stress analysis methods, I found several chapters new & illuminating. Part 2 of the book was quite good as well in presenting the overview of the various requirements against which a structure needs to be designed. I wish the author had presented a few topics regarding the practical aspects of composite analysis using FEM. Although, the analytical calculation part of composites can get hefty, I wish the author had presented a couple of scenarios of designing a structure using the principles from earlier chapters. For example, coming up with an optimal laminate layup of a typical stiffened panel or a Wing Spar beam...illustrating how to arrive at a compromise for various conflicting requirements etc. Would have given us some further insight on application of stressing or design principles to come up with usable structures. I would recommend this book to anyone keen on improving their knowledge about practical aspects of composite analysis. A must have reference book"
