Title: | Experimental characterisation and calibration of hyperelastic material models for finite element modelling of timber-glass adhesive connections under shear and tensile loading | Authors: | ENGELEN, Tine GOUVEIA HENRIQUES, Jose VANDOREN, Bram |
Issue Date: | 2024 | Publisher: | Springer Nature | Source: | Glass structures & engineering (Print), | Status: | Early view | Abstract: | This work aims to characterise the behaviour of structural adhesives for timber-glass connections by performing experimental tests and calibrating numerical models. An adhesive bond between timber and glass can solve two conflicting requirements in timber frame structures.: (i) horizontal stability provided by shear walls/vertical diaphragms; (ii) large open spaces to maximize the flexibility of the building's use. One solution to this challenge is to increase the number of diaphragms in the timber frame building's façade, which can be achieved by structurally activating the glass panels. This, in turn, requires a strong structural bond between the timber and glass. Therefore, in this paper, experimental tensile and shear tests are performed on bonded timber-glass specimens comparing four two-component silicone and a one-component polyurethane adhesive. Special attention is put on the T. Engelen (B) · J. Henriques · B. Vandoren failure behaviour of the adhesives, where both cohesive failure and loss of adhesion were identified. The nonlinear stress-strain behaviour of these adhesives is evaluated and used to asses different hyperelastic material models. Two calibration methods are used to determine the model parameters of the hyperelastic material models. Simulations have shown that the first method, assuming uniaxial tension, was not suitable for the performed tensile tests. However, with the second method, using an inverse parameter fitting method, a better approximation was obtained. The results from this work can be used to model bonded timber-glass connections in larger structures more accurately. | Keywords: | Adhesive;Timber-glass connections;Hyperelastic model | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/43589 | ISSN: | 2363-5142 | e-ISSN: | 2363-5150 | DOI: | https://doi.org/10.1007/s40940-024-00268-x | ISI #: | 001289386600001 | Rights: | The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2024 | Category: | A1 | Type: | Journal Contribution |
