Abstract
- To study the fracture characteristics of laminated flattened-bamboo lumber (LFBL), a transverse mode I fracture test was carried out on a single-edge notched (SEN) specimen. The failure of the specimen was analyzed at the macroscopic and microscopic levels. According to the analysis of P-CMOD curves, it was found that the entire fracture process could be divided into a linear stage, a softening stage and a failure stage, showing nonlinear elastic characteristics. Therefore, the fracture toughness K IC and tensile strength f t of the specimens were calculated by the boundary effect model (BEM) based on the nonlinear elastic fracture mechanism (non-LEFM). According to the calculation results, the influence of size change on fracture toughness K IC was analyzed. On this basis, this paper recommended the specimen size conditions for testing the mode I fracture toughness K IC of SEN specimens of LFBL in LT plane, i.e., S/W ≥ 4 and B ≥ 25 mm, thereby reducing the data dispersion caused by the change of specimen size. Finally, the mode I fracture toughness was obtained: K IC = 429.490 MPa·mm1/2. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
