Abstract
In this paper, the double cantilever sandwich beam (DCSB) specimens were used to study the mode-I fracture behaviour of adhesive interfacial of Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer film. Simple beam theory, corrected beam theory and experimental compliance method were formulated to calculate the fracture toughness; the obtained experimental results were validated by comparing the obtained experimental results with finite element results, which derived from simulation that based on a cohesive zone model and inverse analysis, it also shows that the corrected beam theory and experimental compliance method calculate the toughness more accuracy than simple beam theory.
