摘要
Standard Mode I Double Cantilever Beam specimens for delamination testing of a unidirectional (UD) IM7/977-2 composite were Z-pinned with two separate blocks of Z-Fiber(R) reinforcement. The reinforced beam configuration was such as to provoke an unstable delamination, propagating between the two Z-pin blocks. Crack resistance curves for these specific geometry specimens of IM7/977-2 indicate that the unstable delamination cracks are arrested by the second Z-pin block, with the crack propagation resistance being dictated primarily by the Z-pinning density within a block. Acoustic emission analysis is used to interpret visual observations and other test data.
