✦ Synopsis


An FEM analysis for studying a mixed-mode fracture problem of chopped strand mat glass tibre reinforced polyester laminate is presented. The analysis is formulated on the basis of eight-node quadrilateral isoparametric elements. The collapsed triangular quarter-point singular elements were used for calculating stress intensity factors Kr and Krr. The crack propagation process was computed by implementing a constraint release technique. Three different approaches to the solution of stress intensity factors K, and Ku, were compared. The effect of constraint condition imposed upon the displacement of the three collapsed nodes of the crack tip elements on the KI and KII results was evaluated. The mixed-mode critical stress intensity factors KI,. and KII, were estimated for CSM-GRP through the consideration of K, and KII calculated and the measured failure load and critical crack length in the experiment.

The J-integral is derived for mode I and mode II cracks in orthotropic composite materials and it is shown to be independent of the integral path around the crack tip. The J-integral is then extended and applied to a newly developed energy based fracture criterion for orthotropic composite materials
