Thank you for the reply. I find out that cohesive is the best solution in this case; unfortunately in this case is a bit difficult to have proper data on the stiffness parameters (Knn, Kss and Ktt) as well as for the Damage Initiation and Evolution.
Do you have some suggestion about some...
Unfortunately the slide between the different parts is exactly what I want to investigate. I also would have loved to define and measure the strains on the adhesive layer, that's why a choose a so detailed modelling technique.
I have also thought that maybe I can define a tie constraint and...
Hello!
I am a young researcher, still learning how to use Abaqus. I would love to model numerically an experimental test made to measure the shear behavior of some particular type of rubber adhesive. The problem is that I am finding some difficulties in the definition of the interaction...
