AbstractThe four-point bend (4PB) test has emerged as a method of choice in semiconductor industry for obtaining bimaterial interface adhesion data. When measuring the interface adhesion using 4PB test, it is essential to obtain a crack through the interface of interest. The deposited films, however, posses intrinsic and extrinsic stresses which affect the ratio between energy release rates for interface cracking and crack penetration. Crack penetration and deflection at a bimaterial interface and the role of residual stress has been broadly studied before. However, the results are based on asymptotic analysis regarding interface between two semi-infinite half spaces, where the results do not directly account for boundary conditions and finite size effects of an actual test specimen. In this paper, we look at the role these residual stresses play on the competition between deflection and penetration energy release rates of a bimaterial interface and the extent of which the previous assumption of two semi-infinite media can be accepted.

In this study, honeycomb sandwich structures were prepared and tested. Facesheets of sandwich structures were manufactured by carbon fiber epoxy matrix composites while Nomex® honeycomb was used as core material. An epoxy-based adhesive film was used to bond the composite facesheets with honeycomb core. Four different curing temperatures ranging from 100oC to 130oC were applied with curing times of 2h and 3h. Three-point bend test was performed to investigate the mechanical performance of honeycomb sandwich structures and thus optimize the curing parameters. It was revealed that the combination of a temperature of 110oC along with a curing time of 2h offered the optimum mechanical performance together with low damage in honeycomb core and facesheets.

This paper studies different modelling methodologies for a calculation of the three point bend test. Test samples are composed of a rubber matrix and either steel or textile cords reinforcement. Prior to the bending tests, all of the used materials including the matrix and the reinforcement were measured to find out their mechanical properties. Rubber materials were described using hyperelastic models. FEM software MSC Marc/Mentat is employed as a calculation tool and its various functionalities are utilized for a description of the test composite models. The main observed outcome is a dependence of the vertical force causing the test sample deformation on the amount of the deformation. Calculated results are compared to each other and to measurements. Then, all the modelling techniques are evaluated.
