To evaluate the effects of mode II on the crack initiation and propagation stages, the effects in the fatigue threshold region under a mixed-mode I+II loading state was experimentally investigated. In the case of mixed-mode I + II, during the crack initiation stage, as the loading application angle (${\theta}$) increased, cracks occurred in the lower load owing to the effects of mode II, while the crack propagation rate decreased. The effects of mode II were experimentally investigated in the crack propagation stage by means of multilevel loading direction variation. Following mixed-mode I+II ($0^{\circ}{\rightarrow}{\theta}{\rightarrow}60^{\circ}$), as the load application angle increased, the fatigue crack propagation rate decreased, as did the fatigue crack propagation rate, which occurred later. Following mixed-mode I + II in case of(${\theta}{\geq}75^{\circ}$), the fatigue crack propagation rate was found to increase, while the fatigue life decreased.

The mode II fracture behavior of a single-layer graphene sheet (SLGS) containing a center crack was characterized with the results of an atomistic simulation and an analytical model. The fracture of zigzag graphene models was analyzed with molecular dynamics and the mode II fracture toughness was found to be $2.04MPa{\sqrt{m}}$. The in-plane shear fracture of a cellular material was analyzed theoretically for deriving the $K_{IIc}$ of SLGS, and FEM results were obtained. Mixed-mode fracture of SLGS was studied for various mode I and mode II ratios. The mixed-mode fracture criterion was determined, and the obtained fracture envelope was in good agreement with that of another study.

실제 사용중인 기계나 기계구조물은 다양한 환경 및 복잡한 설계조건으로 인하여 변동하중과 다축에서 작용하는 혼합모드 하중 상태에 놓이는 경우가 대부분이다. 하지만, 순수 모드 I 하중상태 하에서의 연구는 활발히 이루어졌으나, 실제 구조물에서 대부분 발생하는 혼합모드 하중상태 하에서의 연구는 아직 부족한 실정이다. 또한 기계구조물내의 많은 성분요소에 존재하는 작용 하중 방향에 수직적이지 않게 되며, 초기균열의 균열선상에서 성장하지 않는다.(중략)

The mode II interlaminar fracture toughness was evaluated for CFRP laminates with different types of nonwoven tissues and the source of increased mode II interlaminar fracture toughness was examined by SEM analysis in this paper. The interlaminar fracture toughness in mode II is obtained by an end notched flexure test. The experiment is performed using three types of non-woven tissues: 8 $g/m^2$ of carbon tissue, 10 $g/m^2$ of glass tissue, and 8 $g/m^2$ of polyester tissue. On the basis of the specimen with no non-woven tissue, interlaminar fracture toughness on mode II at specimens inserted with non-woven carbon and glass tissues and polyester tissues increases as much as 166.5% and 137.1% and 157.4% respectively. The results show that mode II interlaminar fracture toughness of CFRP laminates inserted with nonwoven tissues increased due to the fiber bridging, fiber breakage, and hackle etc. by SEM analysis.

An electronic initiation system that can support various types of field blasting works has been developed and put into practice. The newly developed equipment called Hanwha Electronic Blasting System (HEBS) II has three basic operation modes of scanning, logging, and tagging, among which the blaster can choose the most suitable one for the specific site conditions. In the present study, the work efficiency of the system in the scanning, logging and tagging modes was compared with that of the previous non-electric detonator. The results were estimated based on the aspects of the ground vibration, fragmentation, and digging time. It was found that the ground vibration, fragmentation, and digging time of the new system were decreased by about 45%, 31%, and 13%, respectively, with respect to the previous system. This result confirms that the new system is very efficient in the scanning, logging and tagging modes under the field conditions.

The mode II fracture toughness and strength due to shear stress are important parameters in the stability of caprock and injection zone with application to geological sequestration of carbon dioxide. In this research, a short beam compression test has been used to determine the shear strength and the mode II fracture toughness for Coconino sandstone. The average value of the shear strength and mode II fracture toughness are estimated to be 23.53 MPa and 1.58 MPa${\surd}$m respectively. The stress intensity factor is suggested by finite element analysis using the displacement extrapolation method. The effect of biaxial stress and water saturation on the fracture toughness has also been investigated. The fracture toughness increases with confining stresses, but decreases by 11.4% in fully saturated condition.

실제 작용하는 하중상태는 요소의 형상과 작용하중의 복잡성 때문에 혼합모드 하중상태를 나타낸다. 또한 혼합모드 피로균열은 전파과정 동안 부재의 구속형상이나 외부 작용하중의 급격한 변화에 의해서도 영향 받게 된다. 이로 인하여 피로균열은 균열선단에서 지속적이면서 급격한 응력 재분배의 상태를 경험한다. 그러므로 다양한 응력 재분배 상태에서의 혼합모드 피로균열에 대한 고찰이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 응력 재분배상태 하에서 나타나는 혼합모드 피로균열의 전파거동에 대한 특징이 실험적으로 고찰되었다.(중략)

In this paper, we investigated the characteristics of initiation and propagation behavior for fatigue crack observed by changing various shapes of initial crack and magnitudes of loading in modified compact tension shear(CTS) specimen subjected to shear loading. In the low-loading condition, the secondary fatigue crack was created in the notch root due to friction on the pre-crack face grew to a main crack. In the high-loading condition, fatigue crack under shear loading propagated branching from the pre-crack tip. Influenced by the shear loading condition, fatigue crack propagation retardation appeared in the initial propagation region due to the reduction of crack driving force and friction on crack face. In both cases, however, fatigue cracks grew in tensile mode type. The propagation path of fatigue crack under the Mode II loading was 70 degree angle from the initial crack regardless of its shape and load magnitude.

This study presents a newly suggested test method of Mode II fracture toughness measurement called "Punch Through Shear Test" which was originally proposed by Backers and Stephansson in 2001. The purpose of this study is to check the validity of the suggested testing method by performing Mode II fracture toughness tests for Daejeon Granite. In addition, the optimal specimen geometry for the testing and the relation between Mode II fracture toughness and confining pressure were also investigated. Fractured surface was observed to be very smooth with lots of rock debris which came off fracture surface which obviously implies that the surface was sheared off. This confirms that Mode II fracturing actually occurred. In addition, numerical analyses including continuum analysis, particle flow code analysis and crack propagation simulations were performed. Results of these numerical analyses indicated that the cracks occurred in the specimen were predominantly in Mode II and these cracks led to failure of the test specimen. From this investigation, it can be concluded that the newly suggested "Punch Through Shear Test" method provides a reliable means of determining the Mode II fracture toughness. fracture toughness.
