Interlaminar fracture behaviour of emerging laminated-pultruded CFRP plates for wind turbine blades

The present work investigates the interlaminar fracture behaviour of pultruded composite plates bonded by resin infusion to form thick CFRP structures. Mode I, II and mixed mode (I/II) tests were performed to obtain fracture properties at different mixed mode ratios.  This publication provides the data set for quasi-static delamination under Mode I (DCB), Mode II (ELS) and Mixed Mode (MMB), including raw data, crack length images and post-processing data. For each data we provide the CHADA for metadata.
