Composite materials and structures are inherently inhomogeneous and anisotropic across
multiple scales. Multiscale modelling offers opportunities to understand the coupling of …

The damage evolution and failure of single-lap riveted joints and adhesive-riveted hybrid
joints in carbon fibre-reinforced plastic (CFRP) are analysed in this study. Results show that …

Composite bolted joints are widely used on primary and secondary load-bearing structures
of aircrafts. However, investigating the damage progression and failure of composite bolted …

Composite bolted joints are being used extensively in primary load-bearing structures of
modern aircrafts. However, simulating progressive damage and failure of the bolted …

The tensile failure behavior in adhesive-bonded composite single-lap joints with different
overlap lengths is investigated through experiments and various three-dimensional (3D) …

The general definition of a novel finite element for structural analysis of composite bolted
joints is presented. The work aims to define an accurate and computationally efficient …

This study aims to explore failure mechanism and failure criteria of carbon fiber reinforced
polypropylene (CFRPP) by presenting a novel notch-shaped design of specimens with two …

This research illustrates the progressive failure mechanisms and variation in the mechanical
behavior of dissimilar materials hybrid joints at elevated temperatures. For this purpose, a …

This paper presents an experimental and numerical investigation in the static strength
enhancement of composite laminate Single Lap bonded Joints (SLJ), reinforced by pins …

During the interference-fit joining process of composite bolted structure, the bolt-hole contact
interface would form naturally. Understanding the microscale damage mechanism of bolt …
