Wear of Composite Materials

Composite materials are engineered from two or more constituents with significantly altered physical or chemical properties within the finished structure. Due to their special mechanical and physical properties they have the potential to replace conventional materials. This volume discusses durability of composite materials, wear mechanisms and resistance.
