Abstract

As in many industrial domains, applications of composite materials show a constant growth in the marine industry. The possibility to create a specific combination of materials and engineering proves that they work together better than any of them independently, thus generating a wide range of applications that challenge the naval architects of today. The paper presents a brief review of the development of this class of materials and their advantages for the shipbuilding and boatbuilding industry.
