Summary of Test Method4.1 The DCB shown in Fig. 1 consists of a rectangular, uniform
30、thickness, unidirectional laminated composite specimencontaining a nonadhesive insert on the midplane that serves as a delamination initiator. Opening forces are applied to the DCBspecimen by means of hinges (Fig. 1a) or loading blocks (Fig. 1b) bonded to one end of the specimen. The ends of the DCB
31、 areopened by controlling either the opening displacement or the crosshead movement, while the load and delamination length arerecorded.4.2 A record of the applied load versus opening displacement is recorded on an X-Y recorder, or equivalent real-time plottingdevice or stored digitally and postproc
32、essed. Instantaneous delamination front locations are marked on the chart at intervals ofdelamination growth. The Mode I interlaminar fracture toughness is calculated using a modified beam theory or compliancecalibration method.D5528 1335. Significance and Use5.1 Susceptibility to delamination is on
33、e of the major weaknesses of many advanced laminated composite structures.Knowledge of a laminated composite materials resistance to interlaminar fracture is useful for product development and materialselection. Furthermore, a measurement of the Mode I interlaminar fracture toughness, independent of
34、 specimen geometry ormethod of load introduction, is useful for establishing design allowables used in damage tolerance analyses of composite structuresmade from these materials.5.2 This test method can serve the following purposes:5.2.1 To establish quantitatively the effect of fiber surface treatm
35、ent, local variations in fiber volume fraction, and processingand environmental variables on GIc of a particular composite material.5.2.2 To compare quantitatively the relative values of GIc for composite materials with different constituents.5.2.3 To compare quantitatively the values of GIc obtaine
36、d from different batches of a specific composite material, for example,to use as a material screening criterion or to develop a design allowable.5.2.4 To develop delamination failure criteria for composite damage tolerance and durability analyses.6. Interferences6.1 Linear elastic behavior is assume
37、d in the calculation of G used in this test method. This assumption is valid when the zoneof damage or nonlinear deformation at the delamination front, or both, is small relative to the smallest specimen dimension, whichis typically the specimen thickness for the DCB test.6.2 In the DCB test, as the
38、 delamination grows from the insert, a resistance-type fracture behavior typically develops where thecalculated GIc first increases monotonically, and then stabilizes with further delamination growth. In this test method, a resistancecurve (R curve) depicting GIc as a function of delamination length
39、 will be generated to characterize the initiation and propagationof a delamination in a unidirectional specimen (Fig. 2). The principal reason for the observed resistance to delamination is thedevelopment of fiber bridging (1-3).3 This fiber bridging mechanism results from growing the delamination b
40、etween two 0unidirectional plies. Because most delaminations that form in multiply laminated composite structures occur between plies ofdissimilar orientation, fiber bridging does not occur. Hence, fiber bridging is considered to be an artifact of the DCB test onunidirectional materials. Therefore,
41、the generic significance of GIc propagation values calculated beyond the end of the implantedinsert is questionable, and an initiation value of GIc measured from the implanted insert is preferred. Because of the significanceof the initiation point, the insert must be properly implanted and inspected
42、 (8.28.3).6.3 Three definitions for an initiation value of GIc have been evaluated during round-robin testing (4). These include GIc valuesdetermined using the load and deflection measured (1) at the point of deviation from linearity in the load-displacement curve (NL),(2) at the point at which dela
43、mination is visually observed on the edge (VIS) measured with a microscope as specified in 7.5, and(3) at the point at which the compliance has increased by 5 % or the load has reached a maximum value (5 %/max) (see Section11). The NL GIc value, which is typically the lowest of the three GIc initiat
44、ion values, is recommended for generating delaminationfailure criteria in durability and damage tolerance analyses of laminated composite structures (5.2.35.2.4). Recommendations forobtaining the NLpoint are given in AnnexA2.All three initiation values can be used for the other purposes cited in the
45、 scope (5.2.1and 5.2.2). However, physical evidence indicates that the initiation value corresponding to the onset of nonlinearity (NL) in the3 The boldface numbers in parentheses refer to the list of references at the end of this test method.FIG. 2 Delamination Resistance Curve (RCurve) from DCB Te
46、stD5528 134load versus opening displacement plot corresponds to the physical onset of delamination from the insert in the interior of thespecimen width (5). In round-robin testing of AS4/PEEK thermoplastic matrix composites, NL GIc values were 20 % lower thanVIS and 5 %/max values (4).6.4 Delaminati
47、on growth may proceed in one of two ways: (1) by a slow stable extension or (2) a run-arrest extension in whichthe delamination front jumps ahead abruptly. Only the first type of growth is of interest in this test method.An unstable jump fromthe insert may be an indication of a problem with the inse
48、rt. For example, the insert may not be completely disbonded from thelaminate, or may be too thick, resulting in a large neat resin pocket, or may contain a tear or fold. Furthermore, rapid delaminationgrowth may introduce dynamic effects in both the test specimen and in the fracture morphology. Trea
49、tment and interpretation ofthese effects is beyond the scope of this test method. However, because crack jumping has been observed in at least one materialin which the guidelines for inserts (see 8.28.3) were not violated, the specimens are unloaded after the first increment ofdelamination growth and reloaded to continue the test. This procedure induces a natural Mode I precrack in the DCB specimen.The first propagation GIc value is referred to as the Mode I precrack GIc.6.5 Application to Other Materia
