Abstract

The paper deals with the experimental measurement of the shear strength in hybrid interfaces, press fitted and bonded with anaerobic adhesives. The aim is to validate and improve the applicability of a constitutive model, which describes the interface behavior up to complete failure, by combining a cohesive law with a pure friction law. This paper presents an extensive experimental test plan, which deeply investigates the shear strength of two strong anaerobic adhesives, over four nominal contact pressure levels. The tests involve cylindrical specimens, butt bonded and pressure reinforced over an annular surface, and seven replications, giving 56 tests. The experimental torque-rotation curves up to complete failure highlight a similar response between the two adhesives, and confirm that the strain energy up to complete failure sums up a cohesive term and a pure friction term. In addition, the main parameters of the model linearly depend from contact pressure through simple relationships.
