Abstract

The cryogenic fatigue delamination behavior of glass fiber reinforced polymer woven laminates under Mode I loading has been investigated experimentally and numerically. Fatigue delamination tests were conducted using double cantilever beam specimens at room temperature, liquid nitrogen temperature (77 K) and liquid helium temperature (4 K). Fracture surface examination using scanning electron microscopy revealed delamination mechanisms under fatigue loading. A finite element analysis was also employed to calculate the J-integral range and damage distributions. The effects of temperature and loading condition on the fatigue delamination growth rates were discussed.
