Book Description
Wood Fracture Characterization provides a guide to the application of modern fracture mechanics concepts to wood materials used in structural engineering, which commonly involve discontinuities and irregularities. The authors cover the tests, data reduction schemes and numerical methods devised for wood structural applications, based on cohesive zone analysis, and used to validate experimental-based methodologies. Five detailed Case Studies are included to link theory with engineering practice. This important new text explains the basics of fracture mechanics, and extends them as needed to cover the special behaviour of an anisotropic wood materials.
Strength and Fracture Characterization of Welded Wood Joints

Pages : 152
Book Description
Wood is a naturally growing material used from ages, but the applications for a single wood piece are limited by the shape and girth of the tree from where the piece is derived. Assembling wood pieces together enables working around this issue. Development in the last 10 years have highlighted the possibility to weld wood instead of the more classical mechanical fastener or polymeric adhesive already known as bonding techniques. While offering high processing speed and ecological advantages, past research have reported poor water resistance of the welded joint. Furthermore, high scatter of the mechanical properties and a lack of quantitative dependence with moisture content prevent performing accurate prediction regarding the joint failure. The aim of this work is to investigate the fracture behavior of the welded joint in a range of moisture content below the fibre saturation point. Combined experimental and numerical work are use to characterize the effects of moisture content and mixed mode loadings and a finite element model is suggested to predict crack propagation in the welded joint.
Adhesive Joints: Formation, Characteristics and Testing

ISBN: 1466562390
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 407
Book Description
This volume documents the proceedings of the Second International Symposium on Adhesive Joints: Formation, Characteristics and Testing held in Newark, NJ, May 22-24, 2000. Since the first symposium, held in 1982, there had been tremendous research activity dealing with many aspects of adhesive joints. This volume contains a total of 21 papers, which were all properly peer reviewed, revised and edited before inclusion. Therefore, this book is not merely a collection of unreviewed manuscripts, but rather represents information which has passed peer scrutiny. Furthermore, the authors were asked to update their manuscripts, so the information contained in this book should be current and fresh. The book is divided into three parts: 1) General Papers; 2) Evaluation, Analysis and Testing; and 3) Durability Aspects. The topics covered include: molecular brush concepts in enhancing strength of adhesive joints; factors affecting performance of adhesive joints; substrate preparation and modification; interfacial/interphasial aspects; determination of locus of failure; analysis and evaluation of adhesive joints using various techniques; testing of adhesive joints; stress analysis; application of fracture mechanics; durability aspects; accelerated environmental degradation of adhesive joints; solvent uptake; and adhesives with special characteristics. This volume represents a commentary on the current R&D activity in this arena and it should be of great value and interest to anyone interested in adhesive bonding / adhesive joints. Furthermore, this volume contains a number of excellent review/overview articles, which should be of particular value.
Mixed Mode I, II, and III Fracture Characterization of Adhesive Joints

Book Description
This paper examines mixed-Mode I-II-III fracture of adhesive joints using a new experimental method. The expressions used for the average energy release rate in Mode I, Mode II, and Mode III along the idealized straight crack front of a cracked, generalized adhesive sandwich are based on beam theory, the J-integral and a beam-on-elastic foundation model. Fracture experiments were performed with adhesively bonded, obliquely-loaded, equal-adherend, split-cantilever-beam (SCB) specimens of different widths and loading angles, using two different adhesives. It was seen that the fracture surface had an arrowhead shape for small loading angles (similar to that of SCB-type specimens), and a thumbnail shape for larger loading angles (similar to that of double-cantilever-beam (DCB)-type specimens). Moreover, a sharp step was observed in the thickness of the residual adhesive half-way across the specimen width. When no Mode I was present, the effect of a Mode II loading component on the critical energy release rate GC was different from the effect of Mode III for one epoxy, but was the same for the other. The addition of Mode I caused the effect on was different from the effect of Mode III for one epoxy, but was the same for the other. The addition of Mode I caused the effect on GC of Mode II to be similar to that of Mode III for both adhesives.
