Composite Structures and Technology

Beschreibung

The book contains contributions from leading international scientists who were colleagues of Prof. Mota Soares. It provides an overview of the current state of research in the fields of Composite Structures and Technologies. A table of contents can only be created once the authors (at least 20) have been invited and the letters of acceptance have been received.

This book is dedicated to Professor Cristóvão Manuel Mota Soares, late Associate Professor at Instituto Superior Técnico, University of Lisbon, deceased on July 3, 2025.

In this book, many of his colleagues and friends contributed their latest insights to analytical, numerical, and machine‑learning–based approaches for a better understanding of composite materials, laminated shells, functionally graded structures, and nano‑reinforced beams. The book spans classical mechanics, higher‑order theories, meshless and finite‑element formulations, and emerging data‑driven methods such as physics‑informed neural networks and extreme learning machines.

All of these impressive contributions underline the great impact that Cristóvão Manuel Mota Soares had on the development of mechanics.
