Behaviour of Composite-to-Composite Interface for Adhesively Bonded Joints. Experimental Set-Up

This paper presents the set-up needed for an experimental study regarding the behaviour of adhesively bonded joints manufactured from glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) composites and structural epoxy adhesives. Two types of single lap shear pull-off specimens were designed and assembled for the experimental study. Twelve series of adhesively bonded joints have been conceived for the experimental program. Each series consists in combinations...
