Abstract

Stress and strain distributions in the adhesive bonded joints subjected to distributed forces are investigated using finite element method. Two different cases are considered, the bonded materials are the same, and the bonded materials are different. The investigations are conducted on a three dimensional model. The finite element model of the joint is obtained using isoparametric three dimensional elements having eight nodes with three degrees of freedom each. The stress components and their distributions both on adhesive surface and on metallic elements are given in dimensionless form using three dimensional graphics.
