Viscoelastic stress analysis of adhesively bonded joints
… form solutions for the stress analysis of the single lap joint were studied intensively, and methods of analysis and assumptions between the analyses of Goland and Reissner, Hart-Smith and Delale and Erdogan were compared. The existing SAAS3V finite element program was modified to accommodate …

Torque Limit of a Mechanical Fastener in a Graphite/Epoxy Joint
… preload of a mechanical fastener in a composite joint due to a lack of a fundamental knowledge base regarding the behavior of composites under fastener compressive load. As such, a novel experimental procedure was developed herein to determine the through-the-thickness compressive (TTTC) material …

Structural and residual strength analysis of metal-to-metal adhesively bonded joints.
… were used to detect the defects in adhesive joints manufactured with two different adhesive types (brittle, ductile) and different defect area distributions (0%, 25% and 40%) along one of the interfaces. The chosen type of defect was kissing bonds, as these are the most difficult to detect. …

Experimental and Numerical Methods for Characterizing the Mixed-Mode Fracture Envelope for a Tough Epoxy
… limit-states is a necessary task for designing joints bonded with the adhesive. The combination of both strength and ductility results in material non-linearities, making experimental characterization and numerical analyses more challenging. This work explores the quantification of fracture …

THE STRENGTH OF BRAZED SINGLE-LAP JOINTS
… or dissimilar materials, create high performance joints for use at high operating temperatures, and create thousands of joints simultaneously due to how the liquid brazing filler metal wets the base material and flows. The latter aspect enables the creation of high operating-temperature …
