摘要
A simple method for achieving stable crack propagation In a beam notched at a support is presented. The method allows the measurement of fracture energy in mixed mode G(f,mix). Results from a small number of laminated veneer lumber specimens suggest that there is a relationship between G(f,mix) and density and that the ratio G(f,mix)/(G(f,I) + G(f,II)) is about 0.35. Calculations of fracture energy in mode I G(f,I), and mode II G(f,II) did nor comcide with values from mode-specific tests, Indicating that an adjustment is necessary to take account of the interaction between the modes.
