Experimental and virtual testing of mode II and mixed mode crack propagation under dynamic loading
Under static loading, measuring experimentally the mode II and mixed mode fracture toughness of composite materials and adhesive joints is well standardised. However, under dynamic loading, no standard procedure has been defined yet. Therefore, this paper proposes an experimental methodology to meas...

| Sumario: | Under static loading, measuring experimentally the mode II and mixed mode fracture toughness of composite materials and adhesive joints is well standardised. However, under dynamic loading, no standard procedure has been defined yet. Therefore, this paper proposes an experimental methodology to measure the mode II and mixed mode interlaminar fracture toughness of composite materials and adhesive joints. The methodology is based on a modified split Hopkinson compression bar. Two different data reduction schemes are explored and compared, one based on measuring the crack length, and another based on measuring the force from the strains in the transmitted bar. The two data reduction methods provided considerably different results. By using the method based on measuring the force, the mode II and mixed mode fracture toughness for both interlaminar and adhesive joints decreased for higher strain rates, while the opposite was found with the other approach. The method based on the crack length measurement was deemed to be unreliable due to the difficulties in measuring it |
