Abstract The influence of mechanical properties and fracture toughness of the core on debond fracture toughness of foam core sandwich has been examined. It was found that the fracture toughness for debonding was larger than the core toughness. The observed difference between core fracture toughness and face/core debonding toughness was analyzed using plastic zone size and mode mixity arguments. The difference in toughness can not be explained by plastic zone size and mode mixity effects. It is possible that the core displays a gradient in properties and fracture resistance, and anisotropic behavior which might explain the difference in toughness.

Abstract The fracture toughness test was conducted on γ + α2 two-phase TiAl alloys with lamellar, duplex and near-y structures. The x-ray fractographic technique was applied to the fracture, surfaces. The plastic zone size my was determined on the basis of the distributions of the residual stress and the half-value breadth beneath the fracture surfaces. Although the fracture mode shows microstructure dependence, ωγ is related to the fracture toughness value KIC and the yield stress σY as: ωy=α(KIC/σY) where α is 0.13.
