Beam on elastic foundation with anticlastic curvature: Application to analysis of mode I fracture tests

Abstract

A first order correction is proposed taking into account both interface elasticity and transverse anticlastic curvature of flexible substrate(s) in the DCB (and related tests). Adherends are represented by Kirchhoff-Love plates, and the interface by Winkler-type elastic foundation. Two functions are introduced, representing evolution of beam deflection along the sample midline and anticlastic curvature along the plate. A method of virtual work is used to find the associated equilibrium equation. The two-dimensional sample deformation is determined semi-analytically. Sample rigidity and energy release rate are computed for various geometrical configurations and compared to more common models.
