Evaluation of Single-Lap and Block Shear Test Methods in Adhesively Bonded Composite Joints

Adhesive bonding is increasingly being used for composite structures, especially in aerospace and automotive industries. One common joint configuration used to test adhesive strength is the single-lap shear joint, which has been widely studied and shown to produce significant normal (peeling) stress...
