Popis: | The design of composite repairs of corroded oil and gas pipelines must take into account the strength of the interface adhesion between composite and metal. A shaft-loaded blister test is a common method to measure interface fracture toughness and energy release rate. The study aimed on evaluating shaft-loaded blister tests as replacements for more complex pressure blister tests. Specimens investigated were thick fibre-reinforced plates bonded on metal disks as substrates containing a circular through-hole defect. This paper presents the influence of different punch head geometries on the resulting energy release rates and compares the results with blister tests using fluid pressure. Test and simulation results are presented and analytical solutions were derived and evaluated to establish best fitting formulations. It was shown, that significant variations between the different means of loading exist. |
