The investigation of mechanical properties of a structural adhesive via digital image correlation (DIC) technic

The most important point to be taken into consideration in the use of bonding joints is the reliability of the joints created with the adhesive. Therefore, many analytical, experimental and numerical studies have been done to determine the mechanical properties of adhesives and to ensure the reliable use of adhesively bonding joints. This study presents the first stage of the two-stage study, which aims to determine the mechanical properties of...
