Popis: | This paper focuses on the effects of transverse shear and root rotations in both symmetric and asymmetrical end-notched flexure (AENF) interlaminar fracture toughness tests. A theoretical model is developed, whereas the test specimen is subdivided into four regions joined by a rigid interface. The differential equations for the deflection and rotations of each region are solved within both the Euler–Bernoulli simple beam theory (SBT) and the more refined Timoshenko beam theory (TBT). A concise analytical equation is derived for the AENF deflection profile, compliance, and transverse shearing forces as a function of the specimen geometry, stacking sequence, delamination length, and fixture span. Modeling results are compared with numerical finite element analyses, obtaining a very good agreement. Performed analyses suggest that even in the case of symmetrical and unidirectional laminates considered as pure mode II fracture, a complex compression/tension and bending moment state is present, as well as a slight contribution of anti-planar shear at the vicinity of the crack tip. |
