  1. 1. Resistance Element Welding of Ultra High Strength Steel to Aluminium

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Malte Eriksson; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The automotive industry strives towards decreased vehicle weight in order to decrease green house gas emissions. To create lighter vehicles, new lighter materials need to be implemented. One issue with new materials is that the traditional joining methods in many cases meet their limitations. READ MORE

    Keywords : Adhesives; uncured; adhesive joints; automotive; epoxy;

    Abstract : Adhesive bonding has become an essential joining method in the automotive industry specially with the recent focus on lightweight reduction. A major limiting factor to the widespread implementation of this joining method is concerns about environmental durability. READ MORE

  4. 3. Adhesive bonding of fiber laminate patch to sandwich-structured composite

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Materialteknik

    Author : Daniel Nesic; [2022]
    Keywords : Adhesive bonding; Shipbuilding; Composite construction; Finite element method in structural mechanics; Fiber reinforced plastics; Optical microscopy analysis; Fractography; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : By using composites when constructing vehicles, lighter weight and thus better performance can be achieved. Composites are widely used in airplanes and small boats, but has yet to be incorporated in larger ships such as freighters and cruise ships. The main hindrance for its use is the lack of practical knowledge and experience. READ MORE

  5. 4. Numerical Assessment of Defects Effect on Boltless Composites Longitudinal Joints

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner

    Author : Mara Santaniello; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The work presented in this thesis focuses on the numerical assessment of defects effect on potential boltless design for fuselage panels longitudinal joints, typically identified as High Load Transfer (HLT) configuration. Nowadays, the state-of-art joining technique for primary aircraft composite structures, such as fuselage barrels, is still mechanical fastening. READ MORE

  6. 5. Virtual Material Testing of Adhesive Joints

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Vinit Jethalal Nagda; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The automotive industry has shown an increasing interest in adhesive bonding for mixed-material joining. Modern design methods are critically dependent on accurate material models and data for numerical methods to enable the simulation of a design prototype early in the design process. READ MORE
