A comprehensive reference manual and introduction to composite materials and manufacturing processes 

Carbon Fibre Composites Manufacturing Technology and Applications provides up-to-date information on the use of carbon fibre composite materials for a range of established and emerging structural applications. Broad in scope, this unique volume covers component design, materials selection, molding processes, manufacturing automation, joining and assembly techniques, cost considerations, and more. Author Andrew Mills, a recognized design specialist with extensive practical experience in the field, thoroughly describes the manufacture of advanced lightweight composite components and reviews their application in the aerospace, automobile, motorsport, sports equipment, renewable energy and other fields. 

With a focus on the practical aspects of high-performance composites manufacturing and applications, the text discusses the use of cost-efficient materials and manufacturing technology for high-performance applications such as commercial and military aircraft, sports equipment, super cars, wind turbine blades, boat structures, and various others. Detailed chapters examine the advantages and disadvantages of each manufacturing process covered, material tolerances and defects, design guidelines for efficient manufacturing, emerging manufacturing technology and materials and process performance evaluation.  



Combines design considerations for components and structures with materials selection and manufacturing technology 
Covers the use of new lower-cost materials and manufacturing techniques in emerging application sectors  
Includes photographs and descriptions of current applications including racing cars, yachts, bridges, bicycles and wave and tidal generators 
Features case studies of design requirements, materials and process selection, and the benefits and challenges of various applications  
Presents materials design data, tables of approximate cost, and figures and flow diagrams of production processes 

Carbon Fibre Composites Manufacturing Technology and Applications is a valuable reference for materials, design, and manufacturing engineers, and is an excellent textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses materials, mechanical, aerospace, automotive, and manufacturing engineering. 

Andrew Mills is Principal Research Fellow at the Enhanced Composites & Structures Centre, Cranfield University, UK, where he leads materials and process research and applications development projects for low-cost carbon fibre composites technology. He has 36 years’ experience developing advanced composite structures, including being part of the design team for the Airbus A320 composite structures, as the leader of the Airbus/Cranfield project AMCAPS which developed technology for large carbon fibre wing manufacture, now in service on the Airbus A380 and leading future structures composites technology development for the BAE Systems FLAVIIR unmanned aircraft project. He has developed online design tools for composites engineering and design consulting for electric automobile development with Nissan and Jaguar Land Rover. Andrew is also a committee member for the Society for the Advancement of Materials and Process Engineering, UK.
