Abstract
Safe design of adhesive joining in multi-materials in engineered structures requires the accumulation of numerous experimental data on the failure behavior of various adhesively-bonded material combinations under different loading conditions. The deep understanding of mechanical performance, fracturing morphologies, and main damage mechanisms is also quintessential for accelerating the development of proper physics-based and multi-scale models for assisting the design.Towards this goal, this work presents a comprehensive characterization of the failure behavior of adhesively-bonded metal–metal, metal–CFRP, and CFRP–CFRP material combinations under global shear deformation via single lap shear testing. Thanks to a synergistic combination of measurement methods by using Digital Imaging Correlation (DIC) and 3D optical profilometry, adhesive features on the adherend after failure were quantified and the main progressive damage mechanisms were identified.The characterization performed in this work provides quantitative data that contributes to a better understanding of shear failure in adhesive bonding across different bi-material combinations. The obtained results have practical implications, including the potential to enhance adhesive bonding design, identify failure causes in adhesive joints, and develop or validate computational models capable of capturing the observed behavior in various adhesively-bonded materials under global shear deformation.
