Single Lap Joints between steel and composite adherends, bonded with an epoxy resin, are numerically examined. The purpose of this work is to verify the reliability of different numerical strategies in simulating the delamination of the interfaces. Theoretical fundamentals of each method are taken into account. The main geometrical parameter is the overlap length. Numerical results are compared to experimental tests; benchmarks of the simulation quality are the elastic stiffness of the joint and its failure load.

Abstract
Single Lap Joints between steel and composite adherends, bonded with an epoxy resin, are numerically examined. The purpose of this work is to verify the reliability of different numerical strategies in simulating the delamination of the interfaces. Theoretical fundamentals of each method are taken into account. The main geometrical parameter is the overlap length. Numerical results are compared to experimental tests; benchmarks of the simulation quality are the elastic stiffness of the joint and its failure load.File in questo prodotto:
