Characterization and Lifetime Performance Modeling of Acrylic Foam Tape for Structural Glazing Applications
This thesis presents the results of testing and modeling conducted to characterize the performance of 3M™ VHB™ structural glazing tape in both shear and tension. Creep rupture testing results provided the failure time at a given static load and temperature, and ramp-to-fail testing results provided …

The Effect of Catalyst Layer Cracks on the Mechanical Fatigue of Membrane Electrode Assemblies
… effect on the mechanical behavior of the MEAs. A linear damage accumulation model used the ABAQUS results to predict lifetimes of the membrane in the MEAs. The models showed that under volume-controlled loading, the stress decays with time and the stress dropped towards the edges of the blisters. …
