This study reveals the adhesive fatigue behavior of normal concrete (NC)–high-ductility
geopolymer (HDG) interfaces. A digital image correlation (DIC) technique was employed to …

Laminated pultruded composite plates are gaining interest for use in wind turbine blades
due to their excellent structural performance with affordable cost. However, there is limited …

The current investigation analyses the un-stable crack initiation of an adhesively bonded
End Notched Flexure (ENF) specimen by means of a continuum damage formulation, based …

When investigating the fracture behaviour of adhesive joints, accurate crack tip localization
under mode II loading is particularly challenging due to the absence of crack opening. The …

This study aimed at estimating crack tip position in adhesive bonded joints under mode II
quasi‐static loading using experimental and numerical approaches. Experimental …

This study analyzes the delamination behavior of adhesive joints after exposure to a saline
environment for zero, one, and twelve weeks. Delamination was assessed under static and …

In order to solve the problem of accurately measuring fatigue crack growth rate in the field of
international material fatigue research, a new method of measuring fatigue crack growth rate …

This work investigates the fatigue crack growth behavior of adhesive joints under pure
modes I and II within epoxy matrix composites reinforced with unidirectional carbon fibers …

Interest in adhesively bonded joints has significantly increased due to their numerous
advantages over other joining techniques. However, they are frequently used in structures …

Due to crack closure, determination of the interlaminar mode II fracture toughness of
composite materials is more challenging than that of mode I. Three data reduction methods …
