Abstract
This report discusses the effect of the scrim cloth on the fracture behavior of adhesively bonded joints. The thick-adherend model joint specimen was analyzed with the TEXGAP finite element computer code. Three situations were considered: (1) uniform adhesive without inclusion (scrim), (2) adhesive with bonded inclusions, and (3) adhesive with debonded inclusions. The material properties and specimen geometry were those of a model joint previously analyzed without inclusions by General Dynamics/Fort Worth Division (GD/FWD).
