Abstract

An investigation into the values of the Energy
Release Rate (ERR) at the band crack’s front in the
rectangular plate made of multilayered composite material
is carried out for the opening mode. The corresponding
boundary-value problem is modelled by using threedimensional
linear theory and solved numerically by
using 3D FEM (Three Dimensional Finite Element Method).
The main purpose of the current investigation is to study
the influence of mechanical and geometrical parameters
on the Energy Release Rate (ERR) at this crack front. The
numerical results related to the ERR, and the effect of the
mechanical and other problem parameters on the ERR are
presented and discussed.
