Dynamic Performance of Adhesively Bonded Single Lap Joints with Different Fiber Angle Orientations of Adherends

Abstract


This work aims to investigate the dynamic response of the adhesive bonding of Single Lap Joints (SLJs) using a free vibration technique. For this purpose, the joints with fixed-end conditions were subjected to the vibration test, and the results were compared with the numerical ones which were obtained from the Finite Element Method (FEM) via the ANSYS package program. The materials used in this study are an adhesive film, AF163 2K produced by 3M, and adherends, manufactured from a glass reinforced polymer matrix composite, produced by Hexcel. While four different adherends with different fiber orientations were used, the thickness of the adhesive layer in bonded region was kept constant, 0.2 mm. In doing so, the main concentration was given to the adherends as the energy dissipation was believed to come mainly from them. The main objective was to get high damping values without compromising any decrease in the structural performance of the joints. The experimental natural frequency, flexural rigidity and damping values of the joints were obtained as a parameter of the different adherend types. The results were also validated using numerical modal analysis.
