In this work, an investigation of the fracture behavior of two different adhesive joints is carried out using experiments to evaluate the interfacial delamination under Mode I loading. The two joints utilized are the dissimilar Titanium-CFRP joint, which consisted of a Titanium sheet bonded to a pla...
