MS Thesis Defense - Connor Farrell

A Masters of Science Thesis Defense:  Evaluation of the piecewise-linear traction separation cohesive zone method framework for simulation of fracture in adhesively bonded composites By: Connor Farrell   Date: October 23rd, 2025 Time: 1:00 pm Location: MEK 3660   Committee Members:  Dr. Michael Czabaj Dr. Dan Adams Dr. Andrew Bergan   Project Summary  Adhesives are a promising alternative to traditional mechanical fasteners as a method of joining components in composite aerospace structures; however, existing methods to characterize and simulate fracture in adhesive bondlines require further improvements to become useful in engineering practice. This has proved challenging because adhesives exhibit quasi-ductile fracture and large fracture process zones that preclude the direct use of existing characterization and analysis methods developed for tape-laminate composites. This study proposes a combined experimental and numerical methodology to assess fracture in adhesively bonded composites using a recently dev… Campus Wide Event: Yes.
