Shear fatigue has become one of the typical failure modes of soft adhesives used in
advanced engineering applications. The fatigue damage is naturally coexistent with the …

This paper aims to illustrate the effect of the impact damage on fatigue behavior of CF/PEEK-
titanium hybrid laminates. To achieve this end, a fatigue life model was proposed to predict …

In this study, a novel model for simulating strength and fracture energy reductions based on
the stress and strain histories of a carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) ply is developed …

Soft adhesive systems (SASs), which consist of a soft adhesive layer and/or soft adherends,
have been extensively applied in advanced fields such as biomedicine, flexible electronics …

Designing load-bearing composite elements significantly relies on the material's response
under different loading conditions, particularly fatigue. To improve the fatigue life prediction …

This work introduces a new methodology to predict the fatigue life of viscoelastic materials
by considering the creep effect on fatigue behavior under the concurrent effects of stress …

A novel methodology to predict the tensile properties of viscoelastic materials as a
synergistic function of temperature and loading/displacement rate is presented in this paper …

To quantify carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) fatigue, herein, we investigate the
relationship between fatigue and an epoxy resin used in CFRPs. Generally, fatigue is …

Soft adhesives used in cutting-edge technological fields are susceptible to shear fatigue
failure under complex in-plane loadings. Although the interaction or coupling effect between …

Flexible adhesives have recently gained increased attention for their use in the joints of fiber-
polymer composite structures because of their pseudo-ductile response and energy …
