This chapter is devoted to modeling the properties of composite materials and structures. Mathematical relations describing the nonlinear elastic three-point bending of isotropic and reinforced beams with account of different strength and stiffness behavior in tension and compression are obtained. An algorithm for numerical solution of corresponding boundary-value problems is proposed and implemented. Results of numerical modeling were compared to acquired data for polymer matrix and structural carbon fiber reinforced plastics. A computational technology for analysis and optimization of composite pressure vessels was developed and presented.
