Structural Composite Materials

Abstract

Composite structures meant for structural uniqueness and property enhancing members in the broad areas covering the areas of aerospace and automobile applications concerning the aspects relates to weight. Meantime manufacturing the light weight structures owing to their specific features measures the type of methods followed is another important factor. The present report discusses about the various manufacturing methods involved in producing the prominent category of composites which aims to establish the research aspect as well as commercial aspects. One such combination that composite manufacturers are ever look in to is fibre reinforced and particle reinforced composites. The present work also emphasizes the comparison of various manufacturing methods adopted with various benefits, limitations for the both manufacturing methods.
