A recent variational mechanics analysis gives the energy release rate due to the formation of a new microcrack between two exisiting microcracks (John A. Nairn, J. Comp. Mat., 23, 1106 (1989)). This analysis has been useful in providing fracture mechanics interpretation of matrix microcracking in cross-ply laminates. This paper describes using the new energy relase rate analysis for a fracture mechanics based interpretation of microcrack formation during fatigue loading. Fatigue experiments were run of three layups of Avimid R � K Polymer/IM6 laminates and on four layups of Fiberite 934/T300 laminates. A modifed Paris-law was used and the data from all layups of a single material system were found to fall on a single master Paris-law plot. We claim that the master Paris-law plot gives a complete characterization of a given material system’s resistance to microcrack formation during fatigue laoding.
