Experimental and Numerical Methods for Characterizing the Mixed-Mode Fracture Envelope for a Tough Epoxy
… This work explores the quantification of fracture energy for PR-2930 bonded joints. Fracture can occur in one of three different modes, or in some combination. Many practical adhesive joints fail in the mixed-mode region involving both opening (mode I) and shearing (mode II) displacements. …

Ductile fracture modeling : theory, experimental investigation and numerical verification
The fracture initiation in ductile materials is governed by the damaging process along the plastic loading path. A new damage plasticity model for ductile fracture is proposed. Experimental results show that fracture initiation in uncracked ductile solids is sensitive to the hydrostatic pressure …

Dynamic Mixed-Mode Fracture of Bonded Composite Joints for Automotive Crashworthiness
An experimental evaluation of the mixed-mode fracture behavior of bonded composite joints is presented. Commonly used experimental techniques for characterizing the mode I, mixed-mode I/II, mode II, and mode III fracture behavior have been employed for the purpose of developing a fracture envelope …
