Özet
In this study, the size and location of delamination effects to layered composites' mechanical properties in buckling behavior are inspected experimentally. Composite plates were produced in accordance with the different dimensions of delaminations and the positions between the layers. These plates consist in delamination rates of a/L = 0.3, 0.5, 0.7 (a: Delamination width and L: Buckling length). The specimens were subjected to buckling tests with placed on its two edges, while the others are free. In the experiments two results are considered. First, we determined load-displacement graphs. Critical buckling loads (Pcr) were determined from the obtained load-displacement graphs. Second, we acquire lateral displacements, which occurred with the effect of applied load in the delamination area in direction of plate thickness. By comparing Pcr with each other, an optimum delamination dimension was determined for composite materials with delamination zones. In the applications, the negative effect on the mechanical properties due to delaminations can be seen, proportionally according to the delamination location.
