Composite usage has increased dramatically over the last three decades due to the advantages of light weight, specific strength and stiffness, dimensional stability, tailorability of properties such as coefficient of thermal expansion and high thermal conductivity. Environmental effects on these properties may compromise a structure and must be considered during the design process.
