Abstract: | The present paper discusses the results of some investigations, which had in view the establishment the variation mode of the breaking resistance to shear and the maxim breaking energy under impact loading of the adhesive joints, with metallic supports, made with epoxy and/or polyurethane adhesives. The studies were made using the shear and impact tests of the adhesive bonded joints. The influence of loading mode, surface roughness of the adhesion interface, thickness of adhesive layer, superposition length, thickness of substrate, bonded area of the joint specimens and the loading rate on the strength of adhesive joints are investigated in detail. |
