Dynamic analysis of single-lap, adhesively bonded composite-titanium joints subjected to solid projectile impact

摘要

The transient stress in a single-lap, adhesively bonded composite-titanium joints subjected to solid projectile impact is analyzed using the three-dimensional finite element method. This method is constructed based on the progressive failure features of the composite adherend and the elastic-plastic property of the titanium adherend and adhesive. The effects of the thickness and overlap length of the adhesive layer, the solid projectile size and its velocity, and the strain-rate effect on the dynamic stress of the joints are examined. It is shown that the stress evolution with certain amplitude exists in the joint. During the impact process, compressive stress concentration is imparted at the point of the contact. Furthermore, experiments are carried out for measuring the strain responses of the adhesively bonded joints. A fairly good agreement is observed between the numerical and measured results.
