Mode I interlaminar fracture toughness of glare laminates by single cantilever beam
Abstract GLARE laminates, also known as Glass Fiber Reinforced Aluminum Laminates, have emerged as critical materials for fuselage and wing skin applications due to their outstanding fatigue resistance and good damage tolerance. Among the various modes of failure in GLARE laminates, interfacial delamination plays a significant role in ...

Mode I interlaminar fracture toughness of additively manufactured carbon fibre thermoplastic
Mode I interlaminar fracture toughness was investigated for the first time for continuous carbon fiber reinforced nylon thermoplastics fabricated using fused filament fabrication (FFF). To illustrate the effect of process temperature on the fracture toughness of the FFF-fabricated continuous carbon FRP composite, the nozzle temperature, bed temperature,

Toughening of graphite-epoxy composites by interlaminar perforated Mylar films [PDF]
Fracture and notch strength tests of graphite-epoxy composites showed that unidirectional lay-ups generally exhibit longitudinal cracking before failure, whereas multidirectional lay-ups fail transversely with little longitudinal cracking.
