A study on the fracture characteristics of structural adhesives according to the shape of double and tapered double cantilever beams using the finite element method

초록

In this study, the fracture characteristics of structural adhesives were investigated according to the shape of a DCB and TDCB by using the FEM. First, to obtain the reliability of the finite element method, the experimental and FEM analyses were compared, and the reliability was secured. When the graph of reaction force to displacement on the TDCB test specimen was examined, it was found that the smaller the slope, the stronger the exhibited property sustaining the load to the end of the adhesive surface. Maximum reaction force occurred was just before the adhesive was removed. The shear stress of the specimen exhibited the same characteristics and an equivalent stress. Thus, the data of this study resulting in the fracture characteristics of the structural adhesives for each shape can be applied to the design with durability. ?
