Experimental Characterization of Advanced Composite Materials
Leif A. Carlsson,Donald F. Adams +1 more
TL;DR: Lamina et al. as mentioned in this paper discussed the need for Lamina testing in composites and proposed a method for tensile testing of composite laminate materials, including Tabbing Materials and Tab Bonding.

On the Analysis and Design of the End Notched Flexure (ENF) Specimen for Mode II Testing
TL;DR: In this article, an end notched flexure (ENF) specimen is examined as a candidate for measuring interlaminar fracture toughness in skew symmetric loading and a simple design study for sizing the ENF specimen to minimize geometric nonlinear response and to avoid nonlinear material behavior or flexural failure is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of weave pattern and crack propagation direction on mode I delamination resistance of woven glass and carbon composites
TL;DR: The effect of weave structure on the interlaminar fracture behavior of orthogonal woven fabric composite laminates has been examined in this paper, where fracture testing employed the mode I fracture DCB test specimen.
