Reinforced Mixed Mode Bending Apparatus
Background Fracture toughness tests measure the ability of a material to resist propagation of a pre-existing flaw. This is an important material property in the manufacturing industry, since the avoidance of all flaws is not possible. Mixed Mode Bending (MMB) is a previously developed fixture that investigates the fracture toughness of layered materials...
