Joint Strength Optimization of Adhesively Bonded Patches

TL;DR: In this paper, the use of a taper and a spew fillet at the end of the patch and a mixed adhesive technique where a ductile adhesive is placed where a crack initiation is prone to occur.

Comparison of the Mechanical Behaviour Between Stiff and Flexible Adhesive Joints for the Automotive Industry

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the behavior of single lap joints and T-joints made of rigid and elastic adhesives in terms of stiffness, strength, impact, damping, and fatigue.

Comparison of the energy absorption capability of crash boxes assembled by spot-weld and continuous joining techniques

TL;DR: In this article, the results of an experimental program aimed to study the progressive collapse behaviour of some thin-walled closed-section structural sections made from deep-drawing steels and joined with different joining systems are reported.

Impact strength of joints bonded with high-strength pressure-sensitive adhesive

TL;DR: In this paper, the impact strength of joints bonded with a double-coated high-strength pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) was experimentally investigated, and the predicted results showed good agreement with the experimental results.

Non-direct similitude technique applied to the dynamic axial impact of bonded crush tubes

TL;DR: In this paper, the suitability of scaling to accurately describe the behavior of bonded crush tube structures during axial impact scenarios was investigated, and the results showed a small departure between the predictions of the model and the prototype.

Experimental quasi-static axial crushing of top-hat and double-hat thin-walled sections

TL;DR: In this article, a new empirical equation is suggested for relating the structural effectiveness to the structural density of top-hat and double-hat sections, and several post-test collapse modes were identified for the structures and the associated energy-absorbing characteristics have been examined and compared with previous tests.

Ultrasonic testing of adhesive bonds of thin metal sheets

TL;DR: In this article, the use of pulse-echo ultrasonic testing for the inspection of adhesive bonds between thin metal sheets (0.8mm) is discussed, based on the measurement of the reflection coefficient at the metal/adhesive interface.

Redesign of adhesively bonded box beam sections for improved impact performance

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of section design on the impact performance of bonded box beam sections is discussed and the results of tests carried out on redesigned sections are presented, and the interpratation of these results in terms of energy absorption and vehicle kinematics is discussed.
