Abstract
Abstract Stress distributions are examined when an adhesive butt joint, in which two thin plates made of dissimilar materials are joined, is subjected to cleavage loads. General representations of the stress and displacement fields are given using the two-dimensional theory of elasticity. The effects of the ratios of young's modulus among two adherends and an adhesive and the thickness of the adhesive on the stress distributions of the joints are clarified by numerical calculations. In addition, the stress singularity near the edge of the interface in the load application side is evaluated. For verification, the strain distributions near the interface of each adherend were measured. The analytical results are closely consistent with the experimental ones.
