A fundamental review on composite materials and some of their applications in biomedical engineering

Composites or composite materials are engineered materials that consist of two or more constituent materials with wide discrepancies in their physical, chemical, and mechanical properties. The characteristic properties of these composite are as a result of the individual properties of their constitu...
