The Analysis and Design of Anisotropic Bonded Joints.

Abstract

Extensive research was conducted providing analysis methods and design methodology for bonded joints in structures of laminated composite materials under static and fatigue loads. An analytical closed form solution has been developed for stresses and deformations in the adhesive joint and the adherends, including transverse shear deformations and normal strain, adherend anisotrophy, thermal strains and adhesive properties. A digital program provides rapid design and analysis; an inclusive parameter study provides trends and methodology.
