Special finite elements for modelling adhesively bonded joints in two- and three-dimensions

Special methods were developed to model adhesively bonded joints in two- and three- dimensions using a simple finite element approach. Analysis of a two-dimensional bonded joint is performed by using plane frame elements to model the adherends, and a single plane elasticity-type element through the...
