Interlaminar fracture toughness of flax-epoxy composites
Journal of Reinforced Plastics and Composites, 2016The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of fibre architectures on the interlaminar fracture toughness and tensile toughness of flax fibre epoxy composites. The fracture toughness was investigated for both Mode I (G IC ) and Mode II (G IIC

Tearing mode interlaminar fracture toughness of composite materials
Polymer Composites, 2001AbstractThe Simplified Split Cantilever Beam (SSCB) is proposed in this work and compared with the Split Cantilever Beam (SCB) to obtain the tearing mode interlaminar fracture toughness. The materials considered are single‐fiber system composites and interply hybrid composites.

Interlaminar Fracture Toughness of Composite Laminate with Splicing Plies
Advanced Materials Research, 2011Delamination is one of the important damage modes in the fiber-reinforced composite laminates. The interlaminar fracture toughness is the key parameter in delamination failure analysis of composites. The stress analysis by a finite element modeling has shown that the shear stress is very large near the ply splicing area.

On the Interlaminar Fracture Toughness of Some Softwood Cores
Journal of Reinforced Plastics and Composites, 2008The interlaminar fracture toughnesses of balsa and end-grain balsa cores with glass-reinforced plastics (GRP) face elements widely used as constructive members, has been investigated experimentally in this study. The interfacial fracture toughness is determined using a mode-I cracked sandwich beam (CSB) test.

Alternative test method for interlaminar fracture toughness of composites
International Journal of Fracture, 2007Two methods of determining the mode I interlaminar fracture toughness for fiber-reinforced polymer matrix (FRPM) composites using a double cantilever beam (DCB) test are compared. The standard method of determining GIC is based in linear-elastic fracture mechanics theory and requires a visual measurement of the crack length, presenting data acquisition

Investigations of interlaminar fracture toughness of laminated polymeric composites
Mechanics of Composite Materials, 1998The behavior of interlaminar fracture of fiber reinforced laminated polymeric composites has been investigated in modes I, II, and different mixed mode I/II ratios. The experimental investigations were carried out by using conventional beam specimens and the compound version of the CTS (compact tension shear) specimen. In this study, a compound version
