Abatraet-Notched beams of saturated concrete were tested, according to RILEM procedure, at temperatures ranging from 20 to -170Β°C. A model recently proposed by the authors, the Perturbed Ligament Model, was used to obtain size-independent Gr values. Results show that the perturbation lengths are tem

β¦ Synopsis
A test equipment for the measurement of material properties within a damage zone subject to combined tension and shear deformations is described. Some results have been presented and discussed concerning the damage zone behaviour under such conditions.

Arrest of a rapidly propagating Mode-I crack has been investigated for a crack which initially propagates in an elastic solid, and then enters a region of viscoplastic material properties. The transition to the viscoplastic behavior has been modeled by a gradual process which starts at a certain tim
An elastic stress analysis of the interleaved end notched flexure specimen was conducted by two-dimensional finite element modeling. The purpose of the study was to identify mechanisms that influence the enhancement of mode II interlaminar fracture toughness of interleaved composites. The study focu
## Abstract The influences of loading rate and thickness on fracture behavior and mechanism of thermoset epoxy resin with polyamine hardener under mixedβmode (mode I/II) loading have been studied at low thickness and low loading rate (LTLL), as well as high thickness and high loading rate (HTHL). U
