The mechanical behavior of printed electronics on fiber reinforced composites is investigated. A methodology based on cohesive zone models is employed, considering interfacial strengths, stiffnesses and critical strain energy release rates. A double cantilever beam test and an end notched flexure test are carried out to experimentally determine critical strain energy release rates under fracture modes I and II. Numerical simulations are performed in Abaqus 6.13 to model both tests. Applying the simulations, an inverse parameter identification is run to determine the full set of cohesive parameters.
