Abstract

The interfacial strength in a glass fiber/epoxy composite is evaluated by using the cruciform specimen method. To find the relation between the tensile and shear stresses at interfacial debonding, the angle between the fiber and the loading directions are changed. Based on the experimental data, the procedure to determine the interfacial failure criterion is discussed.
