COMPOSITE STRUCTURES

The past few decades have seen outstanding advances in the use of composite materials in structural applications. There can be little doubt that, within engineering circles, composites have revolutionised traditional design concepts and made possible an unparalleled range of new and exciting possibilities as viable materials for construction. Composite Structures, an International Journal, disseminates knowledge between users, manufacturers, designers and researchers involved in structures or structural components manufactured using composite materials.The journal publishes papers which contribute to knowledge in the use of composite materials in engineering structures. Papers deal with design, research and development studies, experimental investigations, theoretical analysis and fabrication techniques relevant to the application of composites in load-bearing components for assemblies, ranging from individual components such as plates and shells to complete composite structures.

在过去的几十年中，复合材料在结构应用中的应用取得了显著进展。毫无疑问，在工程界，复合材料已经彻底改变了传统的设计理念，并使其成为一种无与伦比的新型和令人兴奋的建筑材料。《复合材料结构》是一本国际期刊，它在使用复合材料制造的结构或结构部件的用户、制造商、设计师和研究人员之间传播知识。该杂志发表论文，有助于在工程结构中使用复合材料的知识。论文涉及与复合材料在装配用承重部件中应用相关的设计、研究和开发研究、实验研究、理论分析和制造技术，从板和壳等单个部件到完整的复合结构。
