An Improved Fracture Criterion for Mixed-Mode Delamination in Composite Materials

Delamination is a common failure mode in laminated composites, usually under I/II mixed-mode loading. This paper incorporates the influence of mixed-mode ratio on the critical distance in the fracture criterion based on the minimum strain energy density for delamination failure in composites. Meanwh...
