Woodhead Publishing Series in Composites Science and Engineering

Aims & Scope

Those researching and using composites are not short of information. The challenge is, rather, the sheer volume of research. Manufacturers developing composite materials, those using composites in industrial applications and even academic researchers need help in synthesizing this research and summarizing the key trends on a particular topic. Providing this service is the aim of the Woodhead Publishing Series in Composites Science and Engineering.

Key features of the series:

  • Systematic coverage: with the help of our Editorial Board, our own research and the advice of specialists in the field, we aim to identify and commission regular reviews of all the major research in composites

  • Applied research: the focus of the Series is on how research can be used to develop and apply composite materials more effectively in industries such as aerospace, automotive and civil engineering; titles will typically include case studies highlighting applications

  • Scope: we select broad-ranging topics relevant to the academic community and those involved in industry

  • Comprehensive coverage: our books aim to cover all the key aspects of a topic, whether it is the range of analytical techniques used to understand a key aspect of composite behaviour or the range of applications of a particular class of composite material

  • International authorship: we aim to attract the leading international experts in a field, typically writing chapters in their area of expertise, with a senior figure as overall editor of each title

Audience

  • Academic researchers in composites (postgraduate and beyond) who welcome an authoritative and comprehensive review of relevant research in their field

  • R&D managers in industry, whether those developing new composite materials, or those investigating new areas of application in such areas as aerospace, automotive or civil engineering
