My research mate Fernando Coelho came up with this excellent terminology regarding a novel publication about using mechanical pull-off testing for failure pattern analysis for adhesives. This is already standardized via ISO 10365.
However, it is important to note that even 40 years ago, Hutchinson and Sue (1992) already applied fracture analysis tests correctly to address this issue - and not pull-off tests.
What do you think about this issue?
Is it correct to use simple pull-off testing for fracture analysis?
Let me know in the comments below!
