Abstract

A comprehensive investigation of the fiber pushout test reveals that the existence of free-edge stress singularities hinder the accurate measurement of interfacial shear strengths. An integrated analytical, numerical, and experimental investigation is conducted to remove the free-edge stress singularities by modifying the edge design in a model fiber pushout test. The proposed interfacial joint angles are applicable to most composite material systems. The microdroplet test is recommended over the fiber pushout test since the convex shape of the microdroplet matrix makes it a natural choice. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
