Corrections for mode II fracture toughness specimens of composites materials

Abstract A correction factor for the end-loaded-split (ELS) and end-notch-flexure (ENF) Mode II fracture toughness tests is described. This takes the form of correcting the crack length a , by a length χh , where h is the half thickness and χ is a constant that depends on the elastic parameters of the material. The predictions obtained by using this correction are compared with G II results from several numerical schemes, and good agreement is achieved.
