Abstract
Adhesive joints experience not only mechanical loads but also thermal loads. The different mechanical and thermal properties of adhesive and adherend may cause complex thermal stresses. In this paper, finite element analysis method has been used to study the temperature distribution of the adhesively bonded single lap joint whose outer surfaces are assumed to be subject to air flows with different temperatures and velocities. Considering the precondition of geometrical nonlinear, the paper discussed the effects of the end condition, the thickness and the overlap length of adhesive on the thermal stress distribution in the adhesive single lap joint. Simualtion invetigations have been undertaken and the results can be used to predict the strength of adhesive joints and have the realistic guiding meaning with optimization design.
