Application of Acoustic Emission on the Characterization of Fracture in Textile Reinforced Cement Laminates by J. Blom, J. Wastiels, D. G. Aggelis

“…At relatively low load, fracture is initiated by matrix cracking while, at the moment of peak load and thereafter, the fiber pull-out stage is reached. Stress modeling of the material under bending reveals that initiation of shear phenomena can also be activated depending on the shape (curvature) of the plate specimens. …”
