Methodology1st Approach - Paris’ law combined with the Energy Release Rate G :
For a linear elastic specimen with a single crack tip loaded with a prescribed load F
b=width of the specimen, Complience C=∆/F, a=Crack length
(1)
5
As suggested by Berry(1963)
p,q=Compliance calibration parameters
Now
⇒
Substituting dC/da in eqn (1)
(2)
(3)
(4)
6
Experimental values of ∆, F, and number of elapsedCycles N are obtained.
Using Eqtn (3) and (4), G vs. a is evaluated for each experiment
Hence the parameters c and n of ‘Paris’ Law’ are evaluated.

7
The relation used for determining da/dN using experimental data is
afit =fitted crack length

2nd Approach - Damage Mechanics Approach :
The damage evolution law is given by
D=Damage variable, σ= Peel stress, kn= elastic stiffness ;
alternatively
α, β =Damage law parameters, σth = fatigue threshold value in stress
(7)
(8)

The damage laws are implemented as a User Material subroutine (UMAT) in Abaqus with the cohesive elements to simulate the experiments.
The model does only consider damage in peel loading.

Experiment
11
Specimens are manufactured according to the dimensions in the table below.
By repeated experiments, the static stress-deformation relations for Mode I loading are first determined for each adhesive.
For the rubber adhesive, the method of Andersson and Stigh (2004) is used; for the PUR adhesive, the method of Tamuzs et al. (2004) is used.

A fatigue test rig is developed consisting of a solid bar with six individual loads cells.
The rig is mounted in a servo hydraulic tensile test machine.
The experiments are controlled with the initial value of Load ratio=0.1
The experiments are performed at 4 Hz for up to three million load cycles.

Result Analysis and Parameter Identification
The end value of G is used as an engineering estimate of the threshold value Gth for fatigue crack growth.
The corresponding threshold value in stress σth is determined as the value of stress corresponding to the point where G= Gth.
The parameters α and β in Eq. (8) are determined by fitting results fromnumerical simulations to the experimental results in a log-log plot of (da/dN) vs. G.

Parameters obtained by evaluation

ConclusionFracture mechanics using Paris’ law provides simpler parameter estimation than damage mechanics approach.
The local modelling of fatigue damage using damagemechanics provides a more physical model of the fatigue properties.
The experimental results contain substantial scatter for the rubber based adhesive. Thus, a largenumber of repeated experiments are necessary to give useful data and properties.
