ESDU International's new Composites CD-ROM is the latest release in its knowledge-based design guide series containing validated data and engineering software (Plate 14).

The new release focuses on the practical applications of data for topics such as buckling, sandwich panels, bonded joints, composite plates under pressure, failure prediction and acoustic loading and vibration.

Used mainly by military aerospace designers and engineers, the Composite sub-series is also used increasingly widely in the civil aerospace and motor racing industries. The sub-series may also be found useful in specialist naval applications and by sports equipment manufacturers.

The new ESDU Composites CD-ROM provides engineers with immediate desktop access to the world's most reliable research data, expertly validated to give sound design methods that help streamline the design process and make optimisation decisions, so reducing failures.

Comprehensive search facilities provide fast and convenient access to all the Data Items, abstracts of which can be quickly reviewed before the full versions are opened and run.

Each Data Item is written to a common standard and covers a specific engineering component or problem with, in many cases, an associated computer program. The presentation of the data and software allows design projects to be started immediately without the need for an expensive and time-consuming search for data.
