A study of blister tests for film adhesion measurement and fracture efficiency of tests for adhesive bonds

A novel concept, the fracture efficiency, is proposed in this dissertation as a performance index of fracture specimen designs for adhesive bonds. Evaluated based on a simple quantity, the fracture efficiency parameter, the fracture efficiency represents how much crack driving force a certain specim...
