Books by Rikard Benton (University of New South Wales Heslehurst

This book provides a detailed discussion, analysis, and procedure for effective and efficient repair design. It discusses identifying damage types and the effect on structural integrity in composite structures. This leads to the design of a repair scheme that suits the restoration of the structural integrity and damage tolerance.

Containing a detailed list of defects and damage types, this must-have reference examines defect criticality in composite structures and recommends repair actions to restore structural integrity. Relating defect detection methods to defect type, it reviews NDI processes for finding and identifying defects in composite materials and discusses failure modes and mechanisms of composites due to defects. Merging his experience in composite airframe maintenance and repair with indispensable reports and articles, the author explains how defects and damage in composite materials and structures impact component performance.
