Sentence examples for mixed mode delamination from inspiring English sources

Cyclic mixed mode delamination in multidirectional composite laminates subjected to high cycle fatigue loading has been investigated by numerical simulations and cyclic mixed mode bending experiments.

Upon a successful partition of the total energy release rate into individual modes, a mixed mode delamination propagation criterion has been employed for modelling delamination propagation, which is also applicable to multiple delamination problems.

An accurate laminate model developed by using multilayer shear deformable plate modeling and interface elements, based on fracture mechanics and contact mechanics, is proposed to analyze mixed mode delamination in composite laminates.

Apart from an initial validation exercise for a laminated composite plate with a hole where no or little damage occurs, we also use numerical simulations on mode I, mode II, and mixed mode delamination cases in order to assess the performance of our model by benchmarking it against available experimental evidence.

This new approach uses a two-stage model, which is able to capture all of the important experimentally observed effects, i.e. correct load transfer between film and substrate before and after cracking of the film, shear-stress-induced local out-of-plane deformation of the film and mixed mode delamination.

In the region failing in pure compression, the main damage mechanisms are kink band formation and matrix cracking of transverse bundles, whereas in the part failing in bending mixed mode delaminations, intralaminar shear fracture of axial bundles and kink band formation through parts of bundles are identified.

This led to mixed-mode delamination growth, extending parallel to the +45° ply, at the skin/adhesive interface.

Convergence and accuracy are demonstrated in Mode I and mixed-mode delamination in both static and dynamic analyses.

This work aims at studying the mixed-mode delamination process in Moment-Loaded Double Cantilever Beam (MLDCB) specimens.

The proposed cohesive model is demonstrated to predict the mixed-mode delamination response of composite laminates accurately and effectively.

The obtained SERR results are in very good agreement with the experimental values and, in the case of mixed-mode delamination, they are as accurate as the SERR obtained by 3D-FE models.
