Mode II delamination resistance of composites reinforced with inclined Z-pins

Z-pin reinforcements in composite materials significantly enhance the through-thickness strength by providing strong bridging forces on the delaminated surfaces of a damaged laminate. The bridging forces have been shown to be more effective in mode I dominated delamination cracks than in mode II she...
