Combined mode fracture of three aluminium alloys

The objective of this project was to evaluate the fracture resistance of three aerospace grade aluminium alloys under combined mode I - mode III loading conditions, with a view to furthering the concept of the fracture mechanism map. Slow strain rate testing was done using compact tension specimens,...
