Abstract
To enable the widespread use of adhesive joints in industry application, it is fundamental to be able to predict their strength. Advanced predictive techniques such as cohesive zone models (CZM) require the estimation of both mechanical and fracture properties of adhesives. In this work, the Asymmetric Tapered Double-Cantilever Beam (ATDCB) mixed-mode test is studied to estimate the fracture envelope of three adhesives. The R-curves were calculated and the fracture envelopes of each adhesive were built, which enabled calculating the most suitable propagation criterion in mixed-mode to apply in numerical simulations. With this work, the mixed-mode propagation criterion of three adhesives was proposed for strength prediction of adhesive joints.
