A convenient evaluation method is proposed for the debonding adhesive strength in terms of the intensity of singular stress field (ISSF) appearing at the end of interface. The same FEM mesh pattern is applied to unknown problems and reference problems. It is found that the ISSF is obtained accurately by focussing on the FEM stress at the adhesive corner. Then, the debonding condition can be expressed as a constant value of critical ISSF. The usefulness of the present solution is verified by comparing with the results of the conventional method.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
