Abstract

Abstract In this paper, composite parts bonded with embedded single lap joint (SLJ) subjected to tensile load were analyzed by using 3D finite element method (FEM). In the analysis, the composite parts are carbon/epoxy (AS4/3501-6) with different fiber orientation angles and the adhesive is DP 410. The models for the numerical analyses were generated by using ANSYS software package. The finite element analyses (FEA) were carried out to predict the failure loads. Stress in x-, y- and z-directions, shear stresses and the von-Mises stresses on adhesive were obtained at the time of the failure for predetermined parameters. Consequently, the effects of orientation angles, overlap widths and length, and adhesive layer were examined. The most effective parameters were determined for composite parts adhesively bonded with embedded single lap joint.
