Abstract

Experimental results are presented from an investigation into angle cracks emanating from delamination tips in crossply composite plates. The development and growth of the delamination-intralayer crack system is examined under axial compressive cyclic (fatigue) loading. A study of the results indicate different behavior for the intralayer crack formation depending on the composite material configuration and the position of the delamination through the thickness of the specimen.
