We start by reviewing methods for fracture mode decoupling in unconventional laboratory specimens. Then, we propose energetically orthogonal mode decoupling conditions and associated specimen design criteria to obtain pure fracture modes when bimaterial specimens are tested in asymmetric double cantilever beam and asymmetric end-notched flexure test configurations.

Abstract

We start by reviewing methods for fracture mode decoupling in unconventional laboratory specimens. Then, we propose energetically orthogonal mode decoupling conditions and associated specimen design criteria to obtain pure fracture modes when bimaterial specimens are tested in asymmetric double cantilever beam and asymmetric end-notched flexure test configurations. This work hopefully sheds light on some controversial points in the relevant literature.
