Stress Analysis Of Adhesive Bonded Tee Joints

The stresses in adhesive bonded Tee joints, subjected to two linear and one bending moment loads, have been analysed using finite element method. It was assumed that the adhesive and adherends had linear elastic properties. The influences on the stress distributions of the overlap length, adhesive thickness and the fillet of the angle plate are investigated. It was found that experimental results were in good agreement with those of the FE...
