Abstract: | An analysis is presented that predicts shear and peel stresses in an adhesively bonded single lap joint having general asymmetric configuration. The single lap joint is under tension loading together with moments induced by geometric eccentricity. Because these eccentricity moments are the key elements of this analysis, a general relationship between the eccentricity moments and simple geometric moments has been determined with the aid of finite element analysis (FEA). Example calculations show that the shear- and peel-stress profiles from the closed-form model are well matched to FEA results except in the small regions near the free ends of the joints, because of the shear lag basis of the model. For asymmetric joints, the model predictions are more accurate for the case of modulus eccentricity than thickness eccentricity. Elastic-limit load predictions accounting for both shear and peel stress in the adhesive have been used to find optimal joint configurations between asymmetric adherends. |
