Fractography Features of Fracture Surfaces of Glued Joints Made Using an Elastic Adhesive

This work is an attempt to use research results on the physical mesomechanics and quantitative fractography for the analysis of the fracture mechanisms of glued joints made using an elastic adhesive under shear loads. It is shown that this approach provides higher informativity of the fractographic analysis of fracture surfaces of glued joints. It is noted that, to increase the objectivity and accuracy of the fractographic evaluation, a quantitative analysis of three-dimensional fields of fracture surfaces must be performed.
