Figure 7.

Force versus delamination length in a peeling experiment. Peeling force per unit width of the strip is plotted against the delamination length. The patch is 10 × 10 mm2 and the initial thickness is 0.5 mm with DPD parameters given in table 4. The gap length is initially 0.75 mm which is the distance between the two edges. (a) Fibres are oriented 30° relative to the pulling direction (y-axis in figure 6); (b) fibres are oriented 60° relative to the pulling direction. Note that the red line is the mean of five ensemble runs for Inline graphic and Inline graphic with a normal distribution. (Online version in colour.)
