In my three preceding columns, I discussed the testing of sandwich panels as unit structures. This included flexural and shear testing of beams and panels. However, such tests — and hardware ...

This video demonstrates the functioning of Admet’s ASTM D1876 T-Peel adhesive peel test. In this test, the relative peel resistance of adhesive bonds between flexible adhesives is determined through a ...

Adhesive bonding is a critical part of the structural designer’s toolkit, whether components are metallic or composite. The availability of high-quality, reliable and reproducible data is central to ...

The offset shear strength is the shear stress endured by a material at the intersection of the shear stress versus the engineering shear strain curve, with a line parallel to a defined modulus and ...
