Consideration is given to damping in composite structures, material and mechanical properties of composite materials, strength damage and failure in composite materials, manufacturing and design of composite structures, and micro- and macromechanics of composite materials and structures. Particular attention is given to the vibrational damping behavior of composite materials, improved composite material damping using high damping graphite fibers, mechanical behavior of viscoelastic solids, a study of flexural stiffness in delaminated composite plates, and quasi-static and dynamic axial crushing of foam-filled FRP tubes. Also discussed are drilling of fiber and particle reinforced aluminum, a reliability analysis of composite plates for eigenvalue problems, creep buckling of asymmetric laminated columns, and stationary and nonstationary responses of nonlinear dynamic instability of laminated angle-ply composite beams.
