This paper considers the bonded joint as a multilayer structure that is analysed using the Transfer Matrix method. In this particular case three layers (two adherents and the adhesive) are considered. The study of this propagation problem may be developed from matrix formulations which describe elastic waves in layered media. This technique combines the theory of the dynamics of the continuum w...

This study aimed to reveal the interface behavior of iron-based shape memory alloy (Fe-SMA) strips bonded metallic substrates in order ensure integrity such joints. A series single lap-shear tests was performed on Fe-SMA-to-steel adhesively The test results that bond strength can reach over 70% tensile Fe-SMA and cohesive failure mode be realized. It is identified three energy dissipation mecha...

In this paper, a finite element modeling via ABAQUS/Explicit simulation on a novel fabrication miniature composite fuselage structure is presented. The fuselage structure is modeled as a continuum composite layup that consisted of a woven C-glass fiber/epoxy 200 g/m 2 composite laminated [908] with the orthotropic elastic material properties and adhesively bonded butt joint. The adhesively bond...

The only viable method to join some components is by using adhesives. These components are often subjected to dynamic loading, which may cause initiation and propagation of failure in the joint. In order to ensure the reliability of these structures, their dynamic response and its variation with the presence of defects in the bonded area must be understood. The dynamic response of a single-lap ...

Composite materials are widely used in the various Fields. Due to the high strength they are widely used in the low weight constructions and also used as a suitable alternative to metals. In various applications and also for joining various composite parts together, they are fastened together using adhesives or Mechanical fasteners. Modeling and static analysis of 3-D Models of joints such as b...
