Standard Delamination Testing Procedures of Unidirectional Composites
In this chapter some of the standard procedures for delamination testing of unidirectional polymer composites will be examined. The main objective is to explore the possibilities of applying the standard testing methods to interlayer toughened composites and to establish parameters which may influence fracture toughness measurements. Existing standards for mode I and mode II delamination testin...
متن کاملA new test methodology based on structural resonance for mode I fatigue delamination growth in an unidirectional composite
A specific device has been set up to test by vibration resonance the mode I fatigue delamination growth onset of composite laminates. This test system, based on the DCB test specimen, is a mass-spring-specimen dynamic system designed to resonate. The defined operating conditions allow performing delamination propagation tests under imposed load and stopping the test under reproducible condition...
متن کاملPhysical non-linearity of unidirectional polymer matrix composites in cyclic fatigue life analysis
The efficient use of fiber reinforced polymer matrix composites in load-carrying structures requires detailed analyses to assess their mechanical performance, cost, and weight saving aspects. To accurately analyze the cyclic fatigue life of composite laminates, the influence of the physical non-linearity of the unidirectional lamina in the cyclic fatigue life analysis was examined using enhance...
متن کاملMixed-mode Cohesive-zone Models for Delamination and Deflection in Composites
Cohesive-zone models for interfaces incorporate both strength and energy parameters. Therefore, they provide a natural bridge between strength-based models and energy-based models for fracture, allowing delamination to be described by a single framework that covers a range of applications for which the strength or energy criteria alone might not be sufficient. In this paper, the relationships b...
متن کاملMixed-Mode Bending Method for Delamination Testing
A mixed—mode delamination test procedure was developed combining double cantilever beam (DCB) mode I loading and end-notch fixture (ENF) mode II loading on a split unidirectional laminate. By loading with a lever, a single applied load simultaneously produces mode I and mode II bending loads on the specimen. This mixed-mode bending (MMB) test was analyzed using both finite-element procedures an...
