Due to the difficulties of applying torsional loads to introduce mode III effects, there are few
studies for investigating mixed mode I/III fracture in brittle materials. In this paper using three …

The tangential stress contour (TSC) method in combination with the equivalent material
concept (EMC) was used to predict the fracture load, fracture initiation angle, and fracture …

In this paper an angled edge cracked short beam specimen subjected to symmetric three-
point bend loading was designed and examined for conducting mixed-mode I+ II fracture …

A modified single edge cracked bend beam specimen called “inclined edge crack
asymmetric bend”(IE-CAB) specimen was designed and proposed for investigating mixed …

In recent years, it became possible to use different methods for the analysis of mechanical
systems with the help of computers to learn like humans and by increasing their interaction …

The effects of carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are studied
experimentally and theoretically on mixed-mode (I/II) fracture behavior of epoxy resin at the …

This study aims to identify specimens that are more suitable for examining the failure
properties of I/III mixed-mode cracks under static loads. We employed single-edge notched …

Motivated by previous research performed by the authors assessing the fracture behavior in
orthotropic materials under mixed-mode I/II loading, this article aims to propose a novel …

The mixed mode I/II/III translaminar fracture of a natural fiber reinforced composites system
was investigated in this paper. The specimens were made of epoxy resin and fabric cotton …

The use of adhesive joints in industrial applications has been increasing. To increase the
confidence in the design of adhesive structures, it is important to be able to accurately …
