Fracture toughness tests in shear modes (modes II and III) have been performed on short glass fibre composites through the use of special fixtures designed for the purpose. Calibration factors for modes II and III have been obtained. Analysis of the results has been carried out by modelling the dama
This paper deals with mode I fracture toughness prediction of a multidirectional laminated composite, whose fracture is dominated by matrix fracture and has the same layer composition, from the lowest (or matrix fracture) toughness of the basic layer. Two methods, one based on the stress approach an
