Abstract
A history of the losipescu shear test as applied to composite materials is presented along with a description of the test fixture and specimen design. Iosipescu's shear test is compared to similar test techniques, including the asymmetrical four-point bending (AFPB) test. Finally, in-plane and through-the-thickness shear properties measured using the losipescu shear tests are presented for a variety of materials, including a unidirectional graphite/epoxy, random and continuous-fiber sheet molding compounds, and two polymer materials.
