Abstract:

Delamination fracture in multilayered functionally graded, split cantilever beams is analyzed with account taken of the nonlinear behavior of the material. The fracture is studied analytically in terms of the strain energy release rate. The mechanical behavior of the material is described by a power-law stress–strain relation that is not symmetric for tension and compression. The beam can have an arbitrary number of vertical layers of different thickness. Each layer can have different material properties. Besides, the material in each layer is functionally graded along the layer thickness. Also, the delamination fracture can occur at any interface. The strain energy release rate is derived by analyzing the complementary strain energy of the beam. The solution obtained is applied to elucidating the effects of crack location, material gradient and material nonlinearity on the delamination fracture behavior of multilayered functionally graded beam configuration. It is found that the material nonlinearity leads to increase of the strain energy release rate, which implies that the material nonlinearity should be taken into account in the fracture mechanics based safety design of multilayered functionally graded structural members and components.
