Toughening Mechanisms in Composite Materials aims to provide a comprehensive and technically detailed coverage of composites and their toughening mechanisms. Unique in its direct and comprehensive approach, the book presents fundamental knowledge on composites' toughening mechanisms as well as a comprehensive treatment of numerical methods. This volume summarizes the current state-of-the-art and presents the most recent research outcomes in the field. It details the development of each of the techniques, beginning with basic principles, and new concepts are illustrated with examples wherever possible. Covers particle-reinforced composites, fibre-reinforced composites and other toughening mechanismsAnalyses toughening mechanisms in a broad range of composite materialsDevelopments in nanotube toughened composites and toughened graphene ceramic composites are examined INDICE: 1 Introduction to toughening mechanismsPart One - Toughening Mechanisms for Particle-reinforced Composites2 Silicon nitride based ceramic composite materials toughened by rare-earth additives3 Toughening mechanisms in epoxy/graphene platelets composites4 Toughening of non-layered nanoparticle polymer compositesPart Two - Toughening Mechanisms for Fibre-reinforced Composites 5 Toughening mechanisms for fibre of middle-large-aspect-ratio-reinforced composites6 Z-pin toughening mechanisms7 Toughening mechanisms for Whisker-reinforced composites8 Toughening mechanisms for glass fiber-reinforced compositesPart Three - Other Toughening Mechanisms for Composite Materials9 Toughening mechanisms in Zanchor-reinforced composites10 Interlayer toughening mechanisms of composite materials11 Toughening mechanisms of nanoparticle-reinforced polymers12 Toughening mechanisms in dental composites13 Mechanical behaviour of extra-strong CNT fibers and their composites14 Toughening mechanisms for fibre reinforced polymer-reinforced concrete beams
