Abstract
Adhesive bonding structure around a metalic mouthpiece of a cryogenic composite tank was analyzed based on fracture mechanics. Energy release rate was analytically formulated considering difference in strain energies in tension and bending between before and after the crack growth based on a simplified mathematical model. The analytical results were compared with the calculated results by finite element method for five example tanks; they revealed fairly good match. This analysis gives a guideline of the initial optimal design of a cryogenic composite tank based on fracture mechanics.
