Abstract

In this study, the stress distributions in adhesive butt joints of cylindrical pressure vessels are analyzed by the finite element method using eight-node-quadrilateral axisymmetric finite elements. The structure consists of two cylindrical adherends bonded by an adhesive arid the joint is subjected to an internal pressure. Stress distributions and the effects of the adhesive thickness on the stress distributions in the joint are studied.
