  1. 1. Virtual Material Testing of Adhesive Joints

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Vinit Jethalal Nagda; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The automotive industry has shown an increasing interest in adhesive bonding for mixed-material joining. Modern design methods are critically dependent on accurate material models and data for numerical methods to enable the simulation of a design prototype early in the design process. READ MORE

  3. 2. Characterization of thin laminate interface by using Double Cantilever Beam and End Notched Flexure tests

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för maskinteknik

    Author : Moiz Majeed; Rahitya Venkata Teja Geesala; [2020]
    Keywords : Double Cantilever Beam DCB ; End-Notched Flexure ENF ; Fracture toughness; Low density Polyethylene LDPE ; Three-point bending test;

    Abstract : This thesis is intended to identify the mode I and mode II fracture toughness to characterize the thin laminate interface by using the Double Cantilever Beam test (DCB) and End Notched Flexure test (ENF). This study’s thin laminate was Polyethylene Terephthalate and Low-Density Polyethylene (PET-LDPE), which is mostly used by packaging industries in the manufacturing of packages to store liquid food.

  4. 3. Numerical analysis of paperboard delamination using cohesive elements

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Markus Johansson-Näslund; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A new test method for measuring the shear strength associated with mode III delamination of paperboard is studied with the purpose of reducing the size of the test configuration. The method, which uses a split cantilever beam (SCB) specimen, measures the shear strength indirectly through the fracture resistance. READ MORE

  5. 4. Comparison of ASTM and BSI Standards for the calculation of fracture energy of adhesives : Design of a fixture and testing of DCB specimens

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap; Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Francisco Manuel Rodríguez Moronta; Judith Segurola Lucas; [2015]
    Keywords : DCB; standards; adhesives; fracture energy;

    Abstract : Modern synthetic structural adhesives are finding a place in the drive to improve the fuel efficiencyof automobiles through weight reduction of the structure. One of the most important properties ofthe adhesives used in this type of joining is the fracture energy. READ MORE

  6. 5. Design of a Double Cantilever Beam Test Specimen and Fixture for Kink Band Formation in Unidirectional Fibre Reinforced Composites.

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap

    Author : Juan Antonio Cámara Vela; Juan Manuel Sánchez Molina; [2015]
    Keywords : kink band; carbon fibre; unidirectional fibre orientation; double cantilever beam;

    Abstract : Composite materials are widely used in demanding applications in aerospace and other industries. In order to understand the complex behaviour of the composite materials and their components, standardised test methods are used. One example is the double cantilever beam (DCB) test in which the test specimen is loaded in an opening, i.e. READ MORE
