Interlaminar fracture in woven carbon/epoxy laminates

Paulo N.B. Reis, José A.M. Ferreira, José D.M. Costa, António M. Pereira

This paper describes an experimental study developed to characterize the mode I and mode II fracture toughness of carbon/epoxy woven composites, using DCB and ENF tests, respectively. The laminates were manufactured using an epoxy resin…

Crack propagation in a brittle DCB specimen assessed by means of the Williams’ power expansion

Lucie Malikova, Seyed Mohammad Javad Razavi, Filippo Berto

A double cantilever beam geometry has been chosen in order to investigate the importance of the higher-order terms of the Williams’ power expansion for the crack path estimation. The crack propagation has been tested experimentally on a…

Determination of fracture mechanics parameters on a base of local displacement measurements

Yu. G. Matvienko, V.S. Pisarev, S. I. Eleonsky

New experimental technique for a determination of the stress intensity factor (SIF) and T-stress values is developed and verified. The approach assumes combining the crack compliance method and optical interferometric measurements of local…
