A practical strategy to identify appropriate application patterns for adhesively bonded joints

Abstract This paper presents a simple experimental validation of method for finding optimal application patterns in adhesive bonding, as previously introduced by Flaig et al. (2023). The study uses two examples to demonstrate that the found theory effectively fill target gaps after pressing practice. results confirm identified almost perfectly, ensuring excellent joint integrity process. In particular, applicability star pattern square is experimentally validated. addition, creating rectangle cut connected straight beam also effective. While theoretical (2023) were already promising, this research now provides evidence their practical applicability.
