Abstract:Adhesive bonding is widely used in structural connection of composite components due to its capacity to effectively avoid inducing stress concentration and damage in composite components. This work applies a design optimization methodology on the geometry of cross section and ply thickness in adhesively bonded CFRP (carbon fiber-reinforced plastic), hat-shaped, thin-walled beam in automobiles to achieve car body lightweight design. A multi-objective and multi-constraint design optimization problem was formulat… Show more
