Influence of Root Rotation on Delamination Fracture Toughness of Composites
Large deviations have been observed while analysing composite double cantilever beam (DCB) specimens assuming each cracked half as a simple cantilever beam. This paper examines the effect of rotational spring stiffness (K) on the critical fracture energy (GIC) considering nonzero slope at the crack-...
