Use of composite materials in mechanical engineering

U ovom završnom radu obradili su se kompoziti i njihova uporaba u strojarstvu. U uvodu su objašnjeni osnovni konstituenti kompozita, svrha kompozita i njihova opća primjena. Kroz rad su također objašnjene različite matrice i ojačala, te njihove prednosti i nedostatci. Prikazani su različiti načini izrade kompozita, njihova svojstva i ispitivanja istih. Ukratko je objašnjena primjena u strojarstvu kroz transportne industrije, sigurnost i proizvodnju električne energije energijom vjetra.In this final paper, composites and their use in mechanical engineering are discussed. The introduction explains the basic constituents of composites, the purpose of composites and their general application. The paper also explains the various matrices and reinforcements, as well as their advantages and disadvantages. Different ways of making composites, their properties and testing them are presented. The application in mechanical engineering through the transport industries, safety and production of electricity by wind energy is briefly explained
