Finite Element Analysis of Polymers and its Composites offers up-to-date and significant findings on the finite element analysis of polymers and its composite materials. It is important to point out that to date there are no books that have been published on this concept. Thus, academicians, researchers, scientists, engineers, and students in the similar field will benefit from this highly applications-oriented book that summarizes the experimental, mathematical, and numerical analysis of polymers and composite materials through the finite element method. The book provides detailed and comprehensive information on mechanical properties, fatigue and creep behavior, thermal behavior, vibrational analysis, testing methods, and their modeling techniques. In addition, the book lists the main industrial sectors in which polymers and composite materials simulation is used, and their gains from it, including aeronautics, medical, aerospace, automotive, naval, energy, civil, sports, manufacturing, and even electronics.
