Adhesive bonding has gained increasing acceptance in joining pultruded glass fiber
reinforced polymer (GFRP) sections. However, one of the major issues hindering the …

The perovskite solar cell (PSC) is one of the most promising game-changers in the electro-
optic market. This paper examines the nonlinear dynamic performance and stability of the …

The performance of well-established stepped scarf repair schemes for highly loaded
composite structures has been studied in previous works. However, none of the proposed …

The application of the step lap joint has been increased due to its good characteristics such
as lightweight, high stiffness, and good fatigue durability. Moreover, it has a wide application …

The effect of different joint angles and joint types in adhesively bonded joints was
investigated. Two joint types were chosen to examine the effect of the joint type. A total of 12 …

The market requirements impose searching for new joining solutions, which must be simple
and effective. Adhesive joints are currently used, for example in the automotive and …

Tubular adhesive joints are widely employed when joining tubes and rods. The loads to
which these joints are subjected may be axial or torsional. When loaded in the axial …

To enable a quick and cost-effective return to service for wind turbine blades, localized
repairs can be executed by technicians in the field. Scarf repairs, shown to be highly efficient …

Due to the presence of resin-rich regions between carbon fibre plies and the lack of fibre
reinforcement in the though-thickness direction, carbon fibre reinforced polymers (CFRPs) …

The use of adhesively bonded joints is significantly increasing in aerospace structures such
as wings, frames, spoilers, tails and fuselage due to their advantage over mechanical …
