  1. 16. Numerical and experimental analysis of adhesively bonded T-joints : Using a bi-material interface and cohesive zone modelling

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap

    Author : Andreas Andersson Lassila; Marcus Folcke; [2018]
    Keywords : adhesive; cohesive zone modelling; Finite Element Method; mixed-mode; T-joint; fracture; experiment; cohesive laws; Bi-material Interface;

    Abstract : With increasing climate change the automotive industry is facing increasing demands regarding emissions and environmental impact. To lower emissions and environmental impact the automotive industry strives to increase the efficiency of vehicles by for example reducing the weight. READ MORE

    Keywords : Adhesive; Tejp; Bonding; Stainless steels; Accelerated aging; Tensile test; Watertightness test;

    Abstract : This report aims to increase the scientific knowledge about long-term prospects for the adhesive and adhesive joints for bonding of stainless steels. The effects of water, temperature and chemicals on the adhesive and adhesive joints are investigated. READ MORE

  5. 19. Furnace Brazing of AlSi-coated and Uncoated 22MnB5 Steel at Austenite Temperatures

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner

    Author : Adam Häggqvist; [2015]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : By continued advances in mechanical strength of press hardened boron alloyed steel (22MnB5) weight savings can be achieved by the use of less material. However, with reduced material thickness stiffness problems such as buckling arises and the high strength of the material can’t fully be taken advantage of. READ MORE

  6. 20. Convergence properties of a continuum damage mechanics model for fatigue of adhesive joints

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap

    Author : Axel Josefsson; Johan Wedin; [2014]
    Keywords : Adhesive joints; Cohesive elements; Convergence; Crack growth rate; Damage Mechanics; DCB; Element Size; Fatigue;

    Abstract : The effect of the element length is examined in modelling crack growth in fatigue loading of an adhesive joint. This is done for a cohesive element using an expression for the damage evolution developed at the University of Skövde which is implemented using the UMAT subroutine in the FE-solver Abaqus. READ MORE
