Investigation on Void Effect on Shear Stress Field in Bonded Stepped-Lap Joint

Abstract In this paper, an adhesively-bonded stepped-lap joint suffering from a void within its adhesive layer is investigated. The void separates the layer into two sections. The joint is under tensile load and materials are isotropic and assumed to behave as linear elastic. Classical elasticity th...
