Experimental Analysis of the Influence of Hydrostatic Stress on the Behaviour of an Adhesive Using a Pressure Vessel

The modelling of the non-linear behaviour of ductile adhesives requires a large experimental database in order to represent accurately the strains which are strongly dependent on the tensile-shear loading combination. Various pressure-dependent constitutive models can be found in the literature, but only a few experimental results are available, for instance, to represent accurately the initial yield surface taking into account the two stress...
