11、1 composite material,n-a material consisting of two or more materials,insoluble in one another,which are combined on a macroscale to form a useful engineering material possessing certain properties not possessed by the constituents.DISCUSSION-A composite material is inherently inhomogeneous on a mic
12、roscopic scale but can often be assumed to be homogeneous on a macroscopic scale for certain engineering applications.3.2.2 core,n-a generally,centrally located layer or com-posite component of a sandwich construction,usually low density,which separates and stabilizes the facings and transmits shear
13、 between them and provides most of the shear rigidity of the construction (see Terminology C 274).3.2.3 essential,field,n-a field in a record which must be filled in order to meet the requirements of a stated type of database (see Terminology E 1443).DncussloN-Fields are considered essential if they
14、 are required to make a meaningful Comparison of property data from different sources.A comparison of data from different sources may still be possible if essential information is omitted,but the value of the comparison may be greatly reduced.3.2.4 field,n-an elementary unit of a record that may con
15、tain a data item,a data aggregate,a pointer,or a link (see Terminology E 1443).3.2.5 field name,n-a name or code associated with a field and used for identification (see Terminology E 1443).3.2.6 gel point,n(or gel time)-a point in a cure cycle where a thermosetting polymer resin resolidifies after
16、melting.3.2.7 isotropic material,n-a material in which a prop-erty of interest,at a given point,possesses an infinite number of planes of material symmetry,yielding the same property value in all directions.3.2.8 luy-up,n-a process of fabrication involving the placement of successive layers of materials.3.2.9 luy-up code,n-an abbreviated form of stacking sequence information.3.2.10 matrix,n-in composite materials,the continuous constituent of a composite material which acts as the load transfer
