Rate sensitivity of the interlaminar fracture toughness of laminated composites

The rate sensitivities of mode-I and mode-II fracture toughness, in the form of GIc and GIIc of Toray T800S/3900 carbon unitape/epoxy, T700G/3900 Plain weave carbon fabric/epoxy, and Newport NB321/7781 fiberglass/epoxy materials were investigated experimentally. Static and dynamic tests, with stroke...
