Composition of Exfoliation Material
Journal of Glaucoma, 2018Exfoliation glaucoma (XFG) is the most common identifiable cause of open-angle glaucoma worldwide, and results from the accumulation of extracellular fibrillary material (XFM) within the trabecular meshwork and the Schlemm canal leading to increased intraocular pressure and potential blindness.

Recycling of Composite Materials
2021Usage of composite material is rising across various sectors such as automotive, wind energy and aerospace. Compared to metal matrix composites (MMCs) and ceramic matrix composites (CMCs), thermoset based polymer matrix composites (PMCs) dominate the market. The heterogeneous nature of composite materials and cross-linked nature of the thermoset matrix

This chapter presents the composite materials applied to water current turbine (WCT) hydrokinetic turbines. Here will be briefly described the features of these turbines, the fluid-dynamic behavior of the rotor, and its structure formed into a composite material.

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses composite materials. Composite materials are material systems that consist of a discrete constituent distributed in a continuous phase and that derive their distinguishing characteristics from the properties and behavior of their constituents, from the geometry and arrangement of the constituents, and from the ...

Failure of Composite Materials
Strain, 2007Abstract: An overview is given of the state of the art of theories and procedures for predicting and analysing failure in composite materials. Of the scores of failure theories available, only those representative of each of the following categories are discussed: limit or noninteractive, interactive, and failure mode‐based theories.

Introduction To Composite Materials
1987The combination of materials to form a new material system with enhanced material properties is a well documented historical fact. For example, the ancient Jewish workers during their tenure under the Pharaohs used chopped straws in bricks as a means of enhancing their structural integrity.

Classification of Composite Materials
2004Fibre reinforced polymer composite systems have become increasingly important in a variety of engineering fields. Naturally, the rapid growth in the use of composite materials for structural elements has motivated the extension of existing theories in structural mechanics, therein.

Introduction to composite materials
1999This chapter contains a brief summary of the history of composite materials including the relative importance of four classes of materials (metals, polymers, ceramics, and composites) from 10,000 BC through 2200. A general description of the characteristics of composites as they pertain to isotropic, anisotropic, and orthotropic materials is presented ...

The beam elements discussed so far consist of homogeneous, isotropic material. Within this chapter a finite element formulation for a special material type — composite materials — will be introduced. On the basis of plane layers the behavior for the one-dimensional situation on the beam will be developed.

A shell is a thin walled body, just as a beam or plate is, whose middle surface is curved in at least one direction. For instance a cylindrical shell and a conical shell have only one direction in which the middle surface is curved. On the other hand in a spherical shell there is curvature in both directions.
