Use of mode-I cohesive-zone models to describe the fracture of an adhesively-bonded polymer-matrix composite (2005, methodology): “Failure of adhesive joints subjected to both linear and non-linear deformations of the adherends has been studied using these techniques [13,27,31,32], as have the fracture and delamination of laminated composites [22–24].”
Mixed-mode cohesive-zone models for fracture of an adhesively bonded polymer–matrix composite (2006, methodology): “Following the mixed-mode model of Yang and Thouless [17], the entire adhesive layer was replaced by user-defined, cohesive-zone elements, and it was assumed that opening and shear traction–separation laws were totally unrelated, except being coupled through a simple failure criterion of the form G1=”
Use of a cohesive-zone model to analyze the fracture of a fiber-reinforced polymer-matrix composite (2005, background): “Similar observations that the numerical instabilities can be identified with physical instabilities in the real system have been made in related cohesive-zone studies [17,48,49].”
Direct extraction of rate-dependent traction–separation laws for polyurea/steel interfaces (2009, methodology): “Now that we have both mode 1 and mode 2 traction–separation laws, we can incorporate them into mixed-mode cohesive models (Tvergaard and Hutchinson, 1993; Yang and Thouless, 2001 ) to predict the mixed-mode behavior of structures involving polyurea/steel interfaces at different loading rates.”
An improved description of the exponential Xu and Needleman cohesive zone law for mixed-mode decohesion (2006, methodology): “With the mode-I and mode-II parameters known, a mixed-mode cohesive zone model was formulated and the fracture of adhesive joints under mixed-mode loading conditions was successfully simulated [22,26, 45 ].”
Discrete cohesive zone model for mixed-mode fracture using finite element analysis (2006, methodology): “Fracture toughness can be measured through independent laboratory coupon tests, for example, see [18,29–33].”
The effects of geometry and material properties on the fracture of single lap-shear joints (2002, methodology): “Of particular note among the models of the lap-shear geometry are the beam-bending analyses that have been developed to calculate the deformations and stresses when the adherends deform in an elastic fashion.”
Using a cohesive damage model to predict the tensile behaviour of CFRP single-strap repairs (2008, positive): “Yang and Thouless (2001) simulated the mixed-mode fracture of plastically deforming adhesive joints using a mode-dependent EPZ.”
