In addition to the notes on stability that I've already posted, I have a set on Composites, which also originated from a lecture course that I gave in Ecole Polytechnique, around 2002. In the hope that they may be of interest at least to someone, here they are! Please do remember that they are just notes and may not be error-free.
The deadline for submitting abstracts has now been extended to 15 November. To submit, go to http://www.tc4pca.elsevier.com/abstractsubmission.asp
The Institute of Structural Analysis (ISD) of Leibniz Universität Hannover organizes the ECCOMAS Thematic Conference on the Mechanical Response of Composites, from 21st - 23rd September 2011, in cooperation with the Graduate School on Multiscale Methods for Interface Coupling (MUSIC) of Leibniz Universität Hannover, the German Aerospace Center (DLR), and REpower Systems AG.

The Institute of Structural Analysis at Leibniz Universität Hannover invites applications for a
PhD candidate position
(Salary scale TV-L E13)
The position will be available from 1 November 2010 and should lead to a PhD thesis.
Research Project
The Faculty of Engineering, International Islamic University Malaysia is organizing this International Conference to bring together researchers and engineering professionals from all over the globe to meet and deliberate in the beautiful green city of Kuala Lumpur.
This will be the 6th International Conference in the series organised by the European Structural Integrity Society - Technical Committee 4 on Fracture Mechanics related to Polymers, Polymeric Composites and Adhesives. We are again inviting papers in the areas reflecting the current and future interests of TC4 as listed below.
Both experimental and analytical work is sought in order to give a balanced view of the subject areas:
I'm currently working on modeling 3 phases composites material. However, I'm having hard time on finding the transverse modulus as it's different from analytical results. I've been using Mori-Tanaka approach to determine the stiffness moduli. Does anyone know how to obtain a correct values for the transverse moduli?
