This table summarizes the calculations of the maximum stresses incurres for several glue types and glue joint thicknesses.
| run | DESCRIPTION | delta% RH | Max stress (psi) | Silicon stress (psi) Sa=5000 | Foam stress (psi) Sa=325 |
| MVDG | Model in previous memo 6mm thick x 74mm long rigid bond | 50% | 6941 | 6689 | |
| AD1 | control case rigid bond | 50% | 6746 | 6477 | |
| AD2 | Araldite (Sa = 4800 psi) 0.005" thick | 50% | 6763 | 6319 | 129 |
| AD3 | RTV (Sa = 510 psi) 0.005" thick | 30% | 4797 | 4797 | 98 |
| AD4 | Araldite 0.005" thick Reduced delta%RH | 30% | 4058 | 3792 | 77 |
| AD5 | Araldite 0.005" thick Reduced thickness | 30% | 4056 | 3839 | 79 |
The emphasized numbers show that for this combination (AD4) of hard, strong epoxy and finite thickness of 130 um, stresses in both the silicon and the foam are well below their respective failure points.
