    Low-Speed Bending Impact Behaviour of Adhesively Bonded Dissimilar Single-Lap Joints
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2021-10-11) Atahan, M. Gokhan; Apalak, M. Kemal
    This study investigates the low-speed bending impact behaviour of adhesively bonded dissimilar single-lap joints and the effects of both strength and plastic deformation capability of adherend material on adhesive failure. Dissimilar adhesive single-lap joint specimens, such as Al 2024-T3 (top adherend)-Al 5754-0 (bottom) and Al 5754-0 (top)-Al 2024-T3 (bottom), were tested at two impact energy levels (3 and 11 J) for two overlap lengths (25 and 40 mm). The progressive failure analysis of the adhesive layer was also conducted by the non-linear explicit finite element method. The adhesive layer was modelled with a 3D cohesive layer along with the upper and lower adhesive interfaces and a non-linear continuum adhesive region between two cohesive layers. The continuum adhesive region had elasto-plastic adhesive properties whilst the cohesive layers obeyed 3D cohesive rules. The experimental and predicted contact force-time, contact force-displacement diagrams, axial separation lengths of the failed adhesive region, permanent deflection of the bonded region, fracture surfaces were in good agreement. The strength and plastic deformation capability of adherend materials and impact energy levels affected the progressive adhesive failure behaviour. The proposed finite element model was successful reasonably in predicting the initiation and propagation of the adhesive failure.

    Low-Speed Bending Impact Behavior of Adhesively Bonded Single-Lap Joints
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2016-12-26) Atahan, M. Gokhan; Apalak, M. Kemal; Gokhan Atahan, M.; Kemal Apalak, M.
    This study addresses the low-speed impact behavior of adhesively bonded single-lap joints. An explicit dynamic finite element analysis was conducted in order to determine the damage initiation and propagation in the adhesive layers of adhesive single-lap joints under a bending impact load. A cohesive zone model was implemented to predict probable failure initiation and propagation along adhesive-adherend interfaces whereas an elasto-plastic material model was used for the adhesive zone between upper and lower adhesive interfaces as well as the adherends. The effect of the plastic deformation ability of adherend material on the damage mechanism of the adhesive layer was also studied for two aluminum materials Al 2024-T3 and Al 5754-0 having different strength and plastic deformation ability. The effects of impact energy (3 and 11 J) and the overlap length (25 and 40 mm) were also investigated. The predicted contact force-time, contact force-central displacement variations, the damage initiation and propagation mechanism were verified with experimental ones. The SEM and macroscope photographs of the adhesive fracture surfaces were similar to those of the explicit dynamic finite element analysis.

    Experimental Investigation of Oblique Impact Behavior of Adhesively Bonded Composite Single-Lap Joints
    (Springer, 2022-02-22) Atahan, M. Gokhan; Apalak, M. Kemal
    Determining the impact behavior of adhesive joints allows the designing of high-strength joints. Therefore, the dynamic behavior of adhesive joints has recently become a trending research topic. The study aims to examine the impact behavior and damage mechanism of the adhesively bonded composite joints, taking into account different impact angles. The mechanical behavior of adhesively bonded glass-fiber reinforced laminated composite single-lap joints under bending impact load was experimentally determined via a drop weight impact test machine. The effects of impact angle (theta = 0 degrees, 10 degrees, 20 degrees, 30 degrees), fiber angle (phi = 0 degrees, 45 degrees, 90 degrees), and overlap length (b = 25, 40 mm) on the impact behavior of the joints were investigated. These parameters were determined to affect the impact behavior of the joint and the damage characterization. The highest contact force occurred in the joints with 0 degrees fiber angle having the highest bending strength, and the lowest contact force occurred in the joints with 90 degrees fiber angle having the lowest bending strength. Due to the increase in the impact angle, the maximum contact force value in the joints decreased, while the total contact time increased. The increase in overlap length had little effect on the maximum contact force and total contact time, and the vertical displacement decreased due to the increasing bending stiffness. The unbalanced joint with 45 degrees fiber angle was forced to rotate around its axis due to in-plane unbalanced shear stress distributions induced by the bending impact load. The unbalanced shear stress distribution caused shear damage at the fiber-matrix interface and the top composite-adhesive interfaces. In joints with 0 degrees fiber angle, the impact energy was mostly met with adhesive damage, while the composite adherend was damaged as a result of increased shear stresses in the matrix region for the joints with 90 degrees fiber angle.
