This work is concerned with developing numerical modelling techniques for predicting the environmental degradation of adhesively-bonded joints. Associated experimental data are also reported. The moisture-dependent mechanical properties of the adhesive were obtained by testing bulk specimens also exposed to various moisture contents. The diffusion parameters for moisture in the adhesive were determined by carrying out gravimetric experiments on bulk adhesive samples. The moisture-dependent interfacial bond strength of the adhesive system investigated has been determined by testing a mixed mode flexure (MMF) specimen, exposed to obtain various levels of moisture content at the interface. Progressive damage in the joints was modelled with a two-parameter cohesive zone model (CZM). The CZM parameters were determined by correlating the experimental data obtained from the MMF test with results from the numerical simulation. The parameters were then used to predict the response of another configuration, the notched coating adhesion (NCA) specimen. When the residual stresses were neglected in the modelling, the predicted NCA response was seen to be in good agreement with the experimental data. However, initial simulations that included the residual stresses resulted in poor predictions of the NCA response. Creep tests on the saturated adhesive, at the ageing temperature, showed large viscoplastic deformations at low loads. Coupled diffusion-stress modelling, including viscoplastic material properties for the adhesive continuum, showed that the residual stresses for the aged specimens decreased significantly and thus did not contribute strongly to the environmental weakening. Good predictions were then obtained for the NCA tests.
