Abstract
The characterization of fracture toughness or critical energy release rate of adhesive joint in composite structures is a key parameter. In the present study, fracture toughness of adhesively bonded composite joints is experimentally investigated for the basic fracture modes. Experiments are conducted on the double cantilever beam, end notched flexure and edge crack torsion specimens to determine the fracture toughness of three modes, namely...
