Theory of dynamic mode-II delamination in end-loaded split tests

The dynamic mode-II energy release rate (ERR) of the end-loaded split (ELS) test with applied time-dependent displacement is derived for the first time with the effect of vibration included. Dynamic Euler-Bernoulli beams are used together with a deflection condition to simulate contact. To understan...
