The Behavior of the Bonded and Fastened Lap Joint
Abstract
The origin of this work takes place in a frame as form of sheets to assembly of an industrial application in order to study the behavior of a mechanical connection between two metal sheets. The used method actually to assemble metal sheets is the assembly by fasteners. The economic interest resides in the reduction of the number of these connections in order to limit the operations of assembly and in the installation of an optimized connection as well in an operational way as calculative. To strongly reduce the number of the fasteners (screw, rivet) we will introduce bonded joint into the structure of the frame, to study and to compare the dynamic behaviors of the joints assembled by fasteners and adhesive.
