Peer Review Report

Peer review report 2 on ‘‘Tensile fracture characterization of adhesive joints by standard and optical techniques’’ Original Submission Recommendation Publish. Comments to the author Title: Tensile fracture characterization of adhesive joints by standard and optical techniques. Authors: C.J. Constante and colleagues. The new version was markedly improved over the original version, which was unfortunately rejected by a reviewer. Additionally, the issues concerning to my comments in the original version are adequately revised, so I’d like to recommend the manuscript to be published as it is.
