Abstract

This chapter treats mechanical aspects of adhesively bonded joints subjected to impact loads. Fundamentals of impact mechanics of solids are introduced in Sect. 10.2, where stress wave phenomena are explained. A simple formulation of lap joints subjected to an impact stress, which is based on the Volkersen model, is given and calculated numerically with the discrete element finite difference method in Sect. 10.3. Fundamentals of the finite element method for dynamic problems are introduced in Sect. 10.4, where two types of methods: implicit and explicit schemes are explained. In Sect. 10.5, a calculation result of a single lap joint with the finite element method is shown as an example. Experimental methods for evaluating the impact strength are discussed in Sect. 10.6. Stress distributions and their variation as a function of time for joints subjected to impact loads are given by calculations based on analytical models and the finite element method.
