Mixed-mode I + III interlaminar fracture of carbon/epoxy laminates

A new test was developed for measuring the mixed mode I + III interlaminar fracture toughness. The specimen adopted was an 8-point bending plate (8PBP) with a cross-ply lay-up and a mid-thickness edge pre-delamination at the standard 0/0 interface. Finite element analyses (FEA) showed that a wide ra...
