conference contribution
posted on 2017-06-23, 13:46 authored by Christopher HarveyChristopher Harvey, Matthew R. Eplett, Zhaopeng Yang, Simon WangSimon WangSeveral valuable and popular mixed mode partition theories are assessed against experimental results for the prediction of delamination toughness of fiber-reinforced laminated composites. It is
shown that Wang and Harvey’s classical partition theory [1-6] gives the most accurate predictions; Davidson et al.’s non-singular field partition theory [7, 8] also gives accurate predictions; but the
Wang and Harvey’s shear deformable partition theory [1-6] and the singular-field partition theory [7-10] gives poor predictions. It is concluded that the Wang and Harvey’s classical partition theory [1-6]
governs macroscopic interface fractures.
