Force and moment components at the delamination edge.



Four-point bending test fixture showing specimen with delamination open (loaded above snap-buckling moment).



Applied moment versus displacement for T800/M21 specimen.



Electron scanning microscopy (ESM) images of fracture surfaces for T800/M21 material.



Delamination extension versus number of cycles for T800/M21 specimens at a range of severities.



Delamination extension versus number of cycles for IM7/8552 specimens at a range of severities.



Equilibrium solutions showing analytical displacement Q1 against applied moment per unit width M for a range of imperfections Q0 (T800/M21 specimen).



Out-of-plane displacement Q1 comparison for (a) T800/M21 specimen and (b) IM7/8552 specimen.



Strain energy release rate using the thin-film and mixed-mode analyses for the delaminated, post-buckled beam: T800/M21 specimens.
