APPLICATION OF SPECIMEN DOUBLE CANTILEVER SANDWICH TO THE STUDY OF INTERFACIAL FRACTURE TOUGHNESS OF RUBBER/COMPOSITES
-
Abstract
Linear elastic fracture mechanics and acoustic emission were used to monitor the interfacial failure toughness GIC and the resistance crack growth R of rubber/composites for specimen double cantilever sandwich in mode I. It was shown that GIC decreased as the temperature increased. It was also shown that GIC increased as rubber thickness and loading rate increased.
