In this study, double cantilever beam (DCB) experiments were conducted to determine the effect of stitch incline angle on fracture toughness. The laminates were stitched with a square wave pattern having a pitch and spacing of 4mm and three different angles being 0°, 22.5° and 45°. A semi-analytical model for DCB specimens was developed based on the Timoshenko beam theory and validated against the...
Adhesively bonded composite patch repair has been widely used to restore or extend the service life of cracked structural components due to its efficiency and cost-effectiveness compared to mechanical repair technique. Current available knowledge on patch repair mainly focus on flat damaged structures and the corresponding analysis methods and empirical databases are computationally efficient. In...
