Damage progression on fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) adhesively bonded single lap joints (ABSLJ) under quasi-static tension

Implementation of a 3D continuum damage model in UMAT to predict: global behavior, damage initiation and propagation until final failure, for different adherend layup configurations

Adhesively bonded joints have proven to outperform their mechanically fastened joint counterparts, as they present a more structurally efficient method of load transfer, lower stress concentrations and better fatigue performance at reduced weight. In the specific case of the Adhe ...
