Stress Analysis on Adhesive Bonded Joint of Composite Tube due to TorsionWang, Wei-Te 07 September 2001 (has links)
The purpose of this thesis is aimed to predict that what kind of adhesive bonded joint of composite tube the can obtain more efficient structure. APC-2 sixteen-layer laminates of AS-4/PEEK were used as adherends, including cross-ply [0/90]4S and quasi-isotropic [0/45/90/-45]2S laminates. And we use two different kinds of adhesive bonded joints, including stepped lap joint and scarf lap joint. On the aspect of numerical analysis, we employ finite element method incorporate with the software of ANSYS 5.5.1 to obtain the distribution of stress on adhesive bonded joint.
In this thesis, there are two kinds of geometrical shape on stepped lap joint. The bonded layer height h that is vertical to the axis of the composite tube is 2mm and 5mm. There are also two kinds of the geometrical shape on scarf lap joint. The angle £\ between the bonded layer and the axis of the composite tube is 30¢Xand 45¢X.The boundary condition on one side of the composite tube is assumed to be fixed. The other side of the composite tube is due to torsion. According to the numerical result, the stepped lap joint with h=5mm and quasi-isotropic [0/45/90/-45] occurs minimum von Mises stress, and we predict this kind of joint can sustain the maximum external load and obtain better efficiency. In this thesis, the geometrical shape, size and the direction of laminates of the joint will effect the distribution of stress.

Research on the mechanics of CFRP composite lap jointsCurnutt, Austin January 1900 (has links)
Master of Science / Department of Architectural Engineering / Donald J. Phillippi / For this thesis, research was performed on CFRP bonded composite lap-joints with one and two continuous laminas through the lap. Composite wraps used to retrofit existing structures use lap joints to maintain their integrity. The use of composites for retrofitting structures has many advantages over traditional methods, such as steel jacketing, and is becoming more widely accepted in the structural engineering industry. While much literature exists documenting the performance of composite wraps as a whole when applied to concrete columns, less information is available on the behavior of the lap-joint of the wrap. Developing a better understanding of how the lap-joint behaves will help researchers further understand composite column wraps. This research sought to determine what affect continuous middle laminas may have on the stiffness of lap joints and whether or not stress concentrations exist in the lap-joint due to a change in stiffness.

" / free Flexural (or Bending) Vibrations Analysis Of Composite, Orthotropic Plate And/or Panels With Various Bonded Joints (- - -in Aero-structural Systems - - - )Guvendik, Ozen 01 May 2004 (has links) (PDF)
In this Thesis, the problems of the Free Flexural (or Bending) Vibrations of Composite, Orthotropic Plates and/or Panels with Various Bonded Joints are formulated and investigated in detail. The composite bonded plate system is composed of Plate Adherends adhesively bonded by relatively very thin adhesive layers. The general problem is considered in terms of the three Main PROBLEMS, namely Main PROBLEM I, Main PROBLEM II and Main PROBLEM III.
The theoretical formulation of the Main PROBLEMS is based on Mindlin Plate Theory which is a First Order Shear Deformation Plate Theory (FSDPT). Thus, the transverse shear deformations, the transverse and the rotary moments of inertia of the plates are included in the formulation. Very thin, elastic deformable adhesive layers are considered as continua with transverse normal and shear stresses. The
damping effects in the plates and the adhesive layers are neglected.
The entire composite bonded joint assembly is assumed to be simple supported along the two opposite edges, so that the Classical Levy& / #8217 / s Solutions can be applied in this direction. The dynamic equations of the Bonded Joint System
which combines together the Mindlin Plate dynamic equations with the adhesive layer equations are reduced to a system of First Order Ordinary Differential Equations in the state vector form. This special form of the Governing System of the First Order Ordinary Differential Equations are numerically integrated by means of the Modified Transfer Matrix Method which is a combination of the Classical Levy& / #8217 / s Method, the Transfer Matrix Method and the Integrating
Matrix Method (with Interpolation Polynomials and/or Chebyshev Polynomials).
The Main PROBLEMS are investigated and presented in terms of the mode shapes and the corresponding natural frequencies for various sets of boundary conditions. The significant effects of the hard and the soft adhesive layer elastic constants on the mode shapes and on the natural frequencies are demonstrated. Some important parametric studies such as the influences of the Joint Length Ratio, the
Joint Position Ratio, the Bending Stiffness Ratio, etc. on the natural frequencies are computed and plotted for the hard and soft adhesive cases for several support
conditions.

Lamb Wave Based Active Damage Identification in Adhesively Bonded Composite Lap JointsJolly, Prateek 07 May 2016 (has links)
Bonding composite structures using adhesives offers several advantages over mechanical fastening such as better flow stress, weight saving, improved fatigue resistance and the ability to join dissimilar structures. The hesitation to adopt adhesively bonded composite joints stems from the lack of knowledge regarding damage initiation and propagation mechanisms within the joint. A means of overcoming this hesitation is to continuously monitor damage in the joint. This study proposes a methodology to conduct structural health monitoring (SHM) of an adhesively bonded composite lap joint using acoustic, guided Lamb waves by detecting, locating and predicting the size of damage. Finite element modeling of a joint in both 2D and 3D is used to test the feasibility of the proposed damage triangulation technique. Experimental validation of the methodology is conducted by detecting the presence, location and size of inflicted damage with the use of tuned guided Lamb waves.

Corrosion Performance of MIG Welded Cu-lean AA7xxx AlloysDabrowski, Jacek 06 1900 (has links)
An investigation was undertaken to better understand the corrosion behaviour of dissimilar welded Cu-lean AA7003 and AA7108 extrusions. The major variables under study were the heat-treated condition (as-welded T6 vs. as-welded T6+Paint Bake (PB)), extrusion alloy Cu composition (AA7003 vs. AA7108), weld filler composition (ER4043 vs. ER5356), weld joint geometry (lap-joint vs. T-joint), and weld direction with respect to extrusion direction (parallel (═) vs. perpendicular (┴)). The corrosion behaviour of the various weld configurations under investigation was observed using an ASTM standard practice for modified salt spray testing (ASTM G85-A2), a GM worldwide engineering standard for cyclic corrosion testing (GMW-14872), and potentiodynamic polarization measurements. The effect of exposure to GMW-14872 on the tensile-shear behaviour of the various weld configurations under study was also investigated using a custom tensile jig.
Examination post exposure to ASMT G85-A2 revealed the presence of differing pitting corrosion morphologies between AA7003 and AA7108. Due to increased Cu-content, AA7003 displayed deep pitting corrosion which penetrated the entirety of the dynamically recrystallized top surface layer and reached the fine-grained interior. Shallow pitting of the recrystallized surface layer was observed on AA7108, with very few penetration sites that reached the underlying fine-grained interior.
No difference in corrosion behaviour was observed between the heat affected zone (HAZ) and unaffected base alloy of welded AA7003 and AA7108, also consistent with potentiodynamic polarization results. However, the HAZ displayed dual corrosion bands separated by a thin band of unattacked alloy; a result of distinct local microstructural changes induced by thermal cycling from welding.
Tensile-shear testing revealed four types of observed fracture modes: shear across the weld throat, fracture along the AA7xxx/ER5356 interface, fracture along the AA6063/ER5356 interface and fracture in the HAZ of AA7xxx. Little to no corrosion was observed on weld configurations exposed to GMW-14872, resulting in no differences in the tensile-shear behaviour of exposed and unexposed weld configurations. Large variations observed in the tensile-shear results were a result of numerous weld defects. / Thesis / Master of Applied Science (MASc)

Studies on bonding mechanisms of the FSSW for low-carbon steel plates using a novel assembled-type toolLi, Ming-Jie 12 September 2012 (has links)
In this study, a novel assembled-type tool was used to weld SS400 low-carbon steel plate using the friction stir spot welding. The welding tool was made of tungsten carbide embedded a circular rod made of the low-carbon steel. The superiority of this embedded material not only could effectively promote the interface temperature of the joint, but also the thickness of stir zone. Compared to previous studies, this novel tool can significantly improve the manufacturing cost and the trimming time. The welding apparatus composed of a vertical milling machine and a welding platform. The operating conditions of welding were as followings: the diameter of embedded material, the welding speed, and the vertical load. During the welding process, the interface temperature of the joint, the tool plunge depth, and the vertical load were simultaneously measured by the K-type thermocouple, a displacement sensor, and a load cell.
Experimental results revealed that the interface temperature, the thickness of the stir zone, and the tensile strength of the welding joint was proportional to the diameter of the embedded material. The best welding condition is the embedded material diameter of 10mm, the vertical load of 8kN, the welding speed of 1200rpm, and the welding time of 100 seconds.

Bench Scale Characterization of Joints and CoatingsKulkarni, Akhilesh 03 July 2023 (has links)
The ASTM E119 is a large-scale test used to qualify assemblies for fire resistance, including heat transmission and structural integrity. The test requires specialized furnaces and full-scale assemblies that are 3.0 m (10 ft) or more on each side, making it very expensive to perform.
In this study, we investigated the feasibility of the scaling methodology for a reduced-scale fire resistance test on different types of wood-based structures, specifically commercially available intumescent coating applied onto wood and bolted lap joints in wood. We build upon a previously developed scaling methodology for wood and gypsum boards, which integrated geometric scaling, Fourier number time scaling, and furnace boundary condition matching. Intumescent coating presents a particular challenge in scaling in that it expands when exposed to fire conditions. To account for this expansion, we identified a relationship between initial dry film thickness and final expanded thickness through cone calorimeter tests and integrated it into a modified scaling methodology. This approach was then validated through fire exposure tests in furnace on wood samples painted with intumescent coating at full, half, and quarter scales. Finally, we demonstrated the scaling laws for joints under combined thermo-structural loading, by subjecting wood-based half-lap joint samples to combined bending and thermal loading at half and quarter scale. The samples were subjected to static three-point bending with the load scaled to achieve structural similitude, while simultaneously being exposed to a scaled fire exposure on the bottom surface. Our study provides insights into the practical application of scaling methodology for testing the fire resistance of joints and fire-resistant coated wood, paving the way for more cost-effective and quicker fire testing for the wood-based composite industry. / Master of Science / The ASTM E119 is a critical test standard that evaluates the fire resistance of various building materials, including wood-based structures. However, the standard tests are quite expensive due to the need for specialized equipment and large-scale samples. In this study, we explored the potential of using a scaled-down fire resistance test on different types of wood-based materials, including commercially available fire-resistant coated wood and joints.
We built on existing scaling methods for wood and gypsum boards and adapted it to account for the unique properties of intumescent coating - a fire-resistant material that expands when exposed to high temperatures. By conducting a series of tests, we developed a modified scaling approach to accommodate the expansion of the coating.
We then validated this new method by performing fire exposure tests at various scales on wood samples coated with intumescent coating. Finally, we adapted the scaling methods to account for wood based bolted joints. We tested the fire resistance of wood-based half-lap joints under combined heat and structural stress at smaller scales.
Our study offers valuable insights into a more cost-effective and efficient method for testing fire resistance in wood-based structures. By providing a reliable scaling approach for fire-resistant coated wood and joints, our work has the potential to make fire testing more accessible for the wood composite industry, ultimately leading to safer and better-performing buildings.

Joining of steel to aluminium alloys for advanced structural applicationsMartins Meco, Sonia Andreia January 2016 (has links)
When joining steel to aluminium there is a reaction between iron and aluminium which results in the formation of brittle intermetallic compounds (IMC). These compounds are usually the reason for the poor mechanical strength of the dissimilar metallic joints. The research on dissimilar metal joining is vast but is mainly focused on the automotive industry and therefore, the material in use is very thin, usually less than 1 mm. For materials with thicker sections the present solution is a transition joint made by explosion welding which permits joining of steel to aluminium and avoids the formation of IMCs. However, this solution brings additional costs and extra processing time to join the materials. The main goals of this project are to understand the mechanism of formation of the IMCs, control the formation of the IMCs, and understand their effects on the mechanical properties of the dissimilar Fe-Al joints during laser welding. Laser welding permits accurate and precise control of the welding thermal cycle and thereby the underpinning mechanism of IMC formation can be easily understood along with the factors which control the strength of the joints. The further goal of this project is to find an appropriate interlayer to restrict the Fe-Al reaction. The first stage of the work was focused on the formation and growth of the Fe-Al IMCs during laser welding. The understanding of how the processing conditions affect the IMC growth provides an opportunity to act and avoid its formation and thereby, to optimize the strength of the dissimilar metal joints. The results showed that even with a negligible amount of energy it was not possible to prevent the IMC formation which was composed of both Fe2Al5 and FeAl3 phases. The IMC growth increases exponentially with the applied specific point energy. However, for higher power densities the growth is more accentuated. The strength of the Fe-Al lap-joints was found to be not only dependent on the IMC layer thickness but also on the bonding area. In order to obtain sound joints it is necessary to achieve a balance between these two factors. The thermal model developed for the laser welding process in this joint configuration showed that for the same level of energy it is more efficient to use higher power densities than longer interaction iv times. Even though a thicker IMC layer is formed under this condition due to higher temperature there is also more melting of aluminium which creates a larger bonding area between the steel and the aluminium. The joint strength is thus improved ... [cont.].
