Abstract:

Delamination is what happens to a composite material when its layers begin to separate. While this term typically refers to layered composites, it is also used to refer to non-layered composites that break down in layers. Delamination is caused by a weakening of the bonds holding the layers together, often meaning that an adhesive begins to break down. Since this happens inside a material, the substance won’t necessarily show any signs of wear, making its breakdown unexpected. In our experiment, we tried to study about different factors which affects the delamination such as different working temperature, humidity in environment, effect ofadherend thickness of composite materials etc. In this paper we will discuss about the effect of adherend thickness by beam theory, compliance theory and area method.
