Several problems arise when measuring the mode II interlaminar fracture toughness using a Transverse Crack Tension specimen; in particular, the fracture toughness depends on the geometry of the specimen and cannot be considered a material parameter.
For each fruit, we took a photograph, noted color, measured fresh weight, length and diameter, and toughness using a penetrometer (mean of two measures).
