Tema(s): Recursos en línea: Resumen: A new test method for measuring the mode III interlaminar fracture toughness of composites has been devised. The method uses a specimen similar to the split cantilever beam method but the loading pattern is modified to ensure the unwanted mode H component is eliminated. A test jig has been manufactured and a series of tests to evaluate the new method has been conducted. Extensive finite element analyses have also been performed to investigate the performance of the test method. The results of these investigations confirmed that a mode III fracture was successfully achieved in the new test. Test results for an XAS/913C carbon-fibre~epoxy composite indicate that the critical mode IIl energy release rate is approximately six times the mode I value and two and a half times the mode II value.
