Part one reviews textile reinforcement architectures and discusses the forming behaviors of important 2D and 3D fabrics. Part two discusses numerical models to conduct simulation analysis of different structural composites forming at mesoscopic and macroscopic scales, in particular, 3D preforms with through-the-thickness yarns.
Part three looks at the latest developments in the relationship between forming and other steps in composite manufacturing, such as resin injection, and automated fiber placement (AFP) and the effects on certain mechanical properties, such as structural damage and impact resistance. The book will be an essential reference for academic researchers, industrial engineers and materials scientists working with the manufacture and design of fiber-reinforced composite materials.

Nahiène Hamila is a Professor at the Dupuy De Lome Research Institute, Brittany, France. His research work focuses on modelling and simulation of composite material, and to this end he has developed constitute model models for dry or prepreg composite reinforcements in a multiphysics and multi-scale framework. The specificity of his work lies in the link he establishes between the manufacturing process and the properties induced on the behavior of structural parts and their durability.
