Abstract
The Rice Cherepanov J is calculated for a lap joint in pure shear. By choosing as a condition for fracture a critical value J, of this quantity the fracture load of the joint is calculated for linear elastic, perfectly plastic and linear hardening behavior of the adhesive. Comparisons are given with experiments with various adhesives and overlap lengths.
