Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent experiments have shown that significant improvements can be made in the structural efficiency of single lap joints through several modifications. Tests have been conducted in which the adherends were linearly tapered from full panel thickness to practically zero thickness over the length of the bondline in the load direction. Further, tests were conducted to examine the effects of introducing small grooves on the adhesive side of the adherends, perpendicular to the load direction. Similarly, grooves only over the thicker half of the tapered adherend were investigated, because these grooves do introduce stress concentrations. In each case, significant improvements in joint efficiency were made under either static or fatigue loadings. Additionally, specific observations are made pertaining to the residual strain effect due to joint fabrication on the fatigue life of strain effect due to joint fabrication on the fatigue life of the joint. Second, studies were made on the effects of using hybrid adherends and their effect on joint efficiency.

This book was released on 2014-10-21 with total page 553 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is commonly accepted that the majority of engineering failures happen due to fatigue or fracture phenomena. Adhesive bonding is a prevailing joining technique, widely used for critical connections in composite structures. However, the lack of knowledge regarding fatigue and fracture behaviour, and the shortage of tools for credible fatigue design, hinders the potential benefits of adhesively bonded joints. The demand for reliable and safe structures necessitates deep knowledge in this area in order to avoid catastrophic structural failures. This book reviews recent research in the field of fatigue and fracture of adhesively-bonded composite joints. The first part of the book discusses the experimental investigation of the reliability of adhesively-bonded composite joints, current research on understanding damage mechanisms, fatigue and fracture, durability and ageing as well as implications for design. The second part of the book covers the modelling of bond performance and failure mechanisms in different loading conditions. - A detailed reference work for researchers in aerospace and engineering - Expert coverage of different adhesively bonded composite joint structures - An overview of joint failure

Book excerpt: 254 7. 2 AEROSPACE 261 7. 3 MARINE 265 7. 4 GROUND TRANSPORTATION 268 7. 5 CNIL 270 References 285 Index Preface Most structures consist of an assembly of a number of individual components that must be connected to form an integral load transmission path. These connections are often referred to as joints and can be achieved in a variety of forms, e. g. by bolting, riveting, or other forms of mechanical fastening, or by welding or brazing for connecting metallic elements, or by adhesive bonding. No matter what forms of connections are used in the structure, these joints are potentially the weakest points in the structure and the locations where a weight penalty may apply. Thus structural joints must be designed adequately to meet the specific design requirements. Adhesive bonding represents one of the most important enabling technologies for developing innovative design concepts and structural configurations as well as exploiting new materials. The evolution of adhesive bonding technology, and its current knowledge base, was made possibly by the explosive growth in the adhesive applications in a great variety of industries over the past few decades. While it is easy for everyone to identify examples of adhesive bonding in the world around us, analysis and design of structural bonded joints represent one of the most challenging jobs in structural design and manufacturing. Compared to other joining methods, particularly mechanical fastening, adhesive bonding can offer substantial performance and economic advantages.
