This paper studies a three-dimensional buckling delamination problem for a rectangular plate made from elastic and viscoelastic composite material. It is assumed that the plate contains a rectangular band-crack (Case 1) and a rectangular edge-crack (Case 2) and that the edge-surfaces of these cracks
Abatrac-Fracture properties in birefringent materials are studied by the improved method of caustics. A new method for determining stress intensity factors in birefringent materials is found. As examples, the stress intensity factors of epoxy and polycarbonate of plates with different cracks and loa
Indirect impact method using fixed end reflection was newly proposed as the technique for evaluating the dynamic characteristic of viscoelastic materials. A cylindrical specimen is sandwiched between a viscoelastic input bar and a rigid wall, and is tested impacting the input bar. The reflection and
