Abstract

Delamination is an significant property of aluminium lithium alloy laminate for damage tolerance design. Double Crack Lap Shear specimens of "2/1" structure are used for testing delamination properity. Experiments of 2 stress ratio conditions R=0.06, 0.5 are conducted, and 5 stress levels for each stress ratio. Delamination growth data b-N are obtained from 4 crack tips’ locations. The energy release rate, Gd, of the "2/1" structure laminate are calculated. Alderliesten modelis used for describing delamination growth db/dN and energy release rate Gd. Parameters Cd and nd in Alderliesten model are determined for R=0.06 and R=0.5 by linear fitting. An analysis is made by comparing the results of different stress ratio conditons.
