Analysis of the Interlaminar Fracture Toughness of Composite Cylindrical Shells
The interlaminar performance of composite cylinders is analyzed.Through the Double Cantilever Beam(DCB)test,the correspondence between the Type I interlaminar cracking and load of the composite material is ob-tained,and its Type-I fracture toughness is obtained according to the G1C calculation formula.Through the three-point End-Notched Flexure(ENF)test,the Type-II fracture toughness of the material is calculated.A finite ele-ment model is established,and Type-I fracture toughness and Type-II fracture toughness are substituted into the constitutive model parameters of the material,which provides theoretical guidance for the design and evaluation of the interlaminar performance of the structure.
