Composite materials used today are at the leading edge of material
technology, with performance and cost appropriate to demanding
applications such as aerospace, marine, automobiles etc. Composite
materials outperform metals in terms of specific strength and specific
stiffness. In addition to superior structural properties, composites are in
many cases better in corrosion resistance, fatigue resistance, thermal
insulation, thermal and electrical conductivity, and acoustic insulation
than metals. Aerospace structures for example require high specific
stiffness and strength and a very high degree of dimensional stability
under a wide range of temperatures, which are encountered in space.
Because of a negative coefficient of thermal expansion of the carbon
fibers along their axis, aerospace structures can be designed such that a
zero-dimensional change is achieved over a wide range of temperatures.
These unique properties make the composites an obvious choice for both
military and civilian aircraft components. Military aircraft being more
concerned with performance than cost has witnessed the maximum
utilization of advanced composites. Fiber-reinforced polymer composites
are being used extensively in the primary and secondary structures and
control surfaces of military aircraft. Common components include wing
skins and substructures, rudders, flaps, vertical and horizontal stabilizers,
radome, rotors and blades and various access doors. Reinforcement fibers
are mostly carbon and graphite, but glass, aramid, and hybrids are also
used [Chawla, 08; Jamal, 09].
