Development of Design Rules for Structural Adhesive Bonded Joint. A Systematic Approach.

摘要

This thesis focuses on the design of adhesive bonded joints for structural applications and provides techniques to develop reliable design rules. The proposed systematic approach is based on the knowledge of the adhesive bonding technology and structural reliability methods. As such, it is of interest for researchers who work in the field of adhesives, writers of standards and designers who want to apply adhesive bonded joints in practice.
