  2. 1. Mechanical Behaviour of Single-Layer Adhesive Joints : an integrated approach

    Author : Li Högberg; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; adhesive layer; beam adhesive layer model; energy release rate; fracture; integrated; Engineering mechanics; Teknisk mekanik; Teknik; Technology;

    Abstract : Innovative products that are competitive on the market are likely to employ newtypes of materials and unusual geometries. A method that can assemble dissimilarmaterials and irregular geometries cost-effectively and at the same time offera joint that is light in weight and imperceptible, is optimal. READ MORE

  4. 2. Mixed mode loaded adhesive layers : from measurement of material data to analysis of structural behaviour

    Author : Jia Li Högberg; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; adhesive layer; mixed mode testing; cohesive law; J-integral; Engineering mechanics; Teknisk mekanik; Teknik; Technology;

    Abstract : In manufacturing of multi-material products, a joining method that is able to cost-effectively assemble components made of dissimilar and similar material, with irregular geometries, is optimal. As an alternative, adhesive bonding is in-creasingly adapted by the industry, which is also used in manufacturing of multi-phase materials. READ MORE

  5. 3. Adhesive joining for crashworthiness : material data and explicit FE-methods

    Abstract : This thesis, which is a compilation of seven papers, concerns the mechanical testing, numerical analysis and constitutive modelling of wood-adhesive bonds in timber engineering. Applications such as finger-joints, glued-laminated timber and glued-in rods are considered. READ MORE

  7. 5. Finger-Joints for Laminated Beams : Experimental and Numerical Studies of Mechanical Behaviour

    Author : Erik Serrano; Byggnadsmekanik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Finger-joints; Laminated timber; Testing; Nonlinear fracture mechanics; Finite Elemente Method; Lamininating effect;

    Abstract : The introduction of laminated timber, glulam being an example, allowed many of the disadvantages associated with solid wood to be overcome. The disadvantages in question are mainly those related to the size and shape limits of structural elements made of solid wood and to the large variability in such material properties of solid wood as strength and stiffness.
