                 systems. zmax is only marginally greater for fiber pull-out than fiber push-out,  the
                difference  being  almost  negligible  for  the  latter  composite,  which  is  typical  of
                frictional  bonding  at  the  interface.  Considering  the  observation  that  zmax is
                determined mainly by the material properties such as q,/qr and E,/'Ef,  this result
                confirms  that  the  differences  in  the  debond  stresses  between  the  two  loading
                geometry arise mainly from the Poisson effects at the debonded interface, which are
                distinct in each loading.
