Composite materials are not new. They have been used since antiquity. Wood, straw and mud have been everyday composites.
As the term indicates, composite material reveals a material that is different from its heterogeneous materials. Currently ‘composite materials’ refers to materials having strong fibers - continuous or non-continuous – surrounded by a weaker matrix material. The matrix serves to distribute the fibers and also to transmit the load to the fibers.
