Abstract:The static and fatigue strength of crush durable structural adhesive bonded lap joints of steel sheets for automobiles were evaluated by tensile shear tests. The steel sheets used in this study were uncoated and galvannealed (GA) with tensile strength ranging from 270MPa-grade to 980MPa-grade and the thickness ranging from 0.7mm to 1.8mm. Also, the effects of the adhesive types were evaluated. The results are as follows:In the static tensile shear tests, when the steel sheets deformed during the tensile test, … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
