Examines the problems connected with quality assurance in composite material components. Focuses on the quality implications of the product during the material selection and characterization phases and on the evaluation of allowables through statistical analysis. Defines the relationship between design and the structural reliability evaluation of the loaded material and motivates the necessity of accounting for the material′s behaviour patterns with pre‐existent distributed and operation‐induced damage.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
