Interlaminar Mode II Fracture Characterization
Delamination is an important concern in the context of structural behaviour of laminated composite materials. It is known that delamination can diminish the stiffness and the strength of the material and promote structural failure. Delamination onset and growth is governed by interlaminar fracture toughness of the material. Delamination propagation is frequently dominated by mode II fracture; c...
متن کاملMULTI FRACTURE/DELAMINATION ANALYSIS OF COMPOSITES SUBJECTED TO IMPACT LOADINGS
A combined finite/ discrete element method is presented for modelling of composite specimens subjected to dynamic/impact loadings. The main task is set on developing an algorithm for simulation of potential bonding and debonding/delamination phenomena during impact or general dynamic loading conditions. In addition, full fracture analysis can also be performed. The proposed approach adopts a ge...
متن کاملNumerical Determination of Delamination Onset in Laminated Symmetric DCB Specimen
In this study, a novel numerical method is proposed for determination of mode-I interlaminar fracture toughness, GIc, in multi-directional (MD) double cantilever beam (DCB) specimens using fracture properties of unidirectional DCB specimens. Two factors, β and Dc are defined to minimize the undesirable effects on strain energy release rate. β describes the difference between maximum and average...
متن کاملFracture Mechanics for Composites State of the Art and Challenges
Interlaminar fracture mechanics has proven useful for characterizing the onset of delaminations in composites and has been used with limited success primarily to investigate onset in fracture toughness specimens and laboratory size coupon type specimens. Future acceptance of the methodology by industry and certification authorities however, requires the successful demonstration of the methodolo...
متن کاملDiscrete Spring Model for Predicting Delamination Growth in Z-Fiber Reinforced DCB Specimens
Beam theory analysis was applied to predict delamination growth in DCB specimens reinforced in the thickness direction with pultruded pins, known as Z-fibers. The specimen arms were modeled as cantilever beams supported by discrete springs, which were included to represent the pins. A bi-linear, irreversible damage law was used to represent Z-fiber damage, the parameters of which were obtained ...
