    In this study, the finite element method was used to analyze the distribution of the adhesive shear stresses between two plates with and without notch subjected to a tensile load. The effects of the adhesive properties were highlighted. The results show that the notch effect is more sensible when the free edge of the adhesive is near the notch. This effect disappears completely for small radius of the notch. The presence of the notch does not have any effect on the distribution of the adhesive shear stresses
