Contact Force and Friction of Generally Layered Laminates with Residual Hygrothermal Stresses under Mode II In-Plane-Shear Delamination

Applied Sciences
Mode II (in-plane-shear) delamination tests are more complex than mode I (opening) due to the presence of a contact force between the two arms. This force is essential for the calculation of the energy release rate (ERR) and is closely linked to friction
