β¦ Synopsis
We have employed the asymmetric double cantilever beam (ADCB) specimen, which consists of a brittle adhesive bonding aluminium-alloy substrates, to measure the toughness, G~. We have investigated whether the ratio of the heights of the specimen arms (i.e. defined by the parameter A, where A = hi/h2) has any significant effect on the value of G~. We find no significant effects, and compare our results to those previously reported where a dramatic effect was found, but could not be explained.

A Cherepanov-Rice J integral is derived for Goland-Reissner type joints. It is shown that the resulting J integral is path independent under the assumption of small rotation of adherents and thin adhesive thickness. It represents the product of strain energy density at the edge of the joint and adhe
Abstraet--A Compact Mixed Mode (CMM) fracture specimen was developed for fracture toughness determination. It is capable of determining the complete range of fracture toughness under pure mode I, pure mode II and mixed mode I and II loading conditions. Finite element analysis was conducted to provid
