Dynamic Fiber Debonding and Push-Out in Model Composites

As an outcome of the numerical analysis, two major modifications were made to the experimental set-up: (a) stress information near the composite specimen was collected by a combination of quartz crystal transducer-strain gage measurement; (b) the crack initiation and propagation was explored by a custom crack detection system. Experimental observations further confirmed the numerical analysis results.
