Adhesive bonding is widely seen as the most optimal method for joining composite
materials, bringing significant benefits over mechanical joining, such as lower weight and …

Among the myriad joining techniques, the adhesive bonding technique is widely used to join
complex large-scale composite structures because of its numerous advantages compared to …

This study experimentally investigates the combined effect of several parameters on the
fatigue behaviour of adhesive bonded single lap joints, including: substrate material (steel …

This research presents a comparative analysis of the fracture surfaces of adhesively bonded
dissimilar single lap joints (DSLJs) and investigates the effect of nanosilica (NS) additives on …

The study proposes a novel concept of a curved single lap joint (SLJ) with non-uniform
adhesive thickness to reduce stress concentrations near overlap edges. Experimental and …

Aluminum alloys have become vital in industries such as aerospace and automotive due to
their high strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, and versatility. This study examines …

In this study, various test samples were produced using PLA based two filament materials
with different fillers (2% calcium carbonate containing polylactic acid/PLA Plus and 15 …

Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) techniques, such as Electromechanical Impedance
