The Effect of Transverse Shear in Symmetric and Asymmetric End Notch Flexure Tests–Analytical and Numerical Modeling
This paper focuses on the effects of transverse shear and root rotations in both symmetric and asymmetrical end-notched flexure (AENF) interlaminar fracture toughness tests. A theoretical model is developed, whereas the test specimen is subdivided into four regions joined by a rigid interface. The d...
