Abstract
In this investigation, an analytical elastic–plastic solution was proposed for a single-lap joint. A ductile adhesive joint material was used as the bond material. FM-73 was utilized in the study. The influence of the bending moment was neglected in the solution. The solution was modified for shear stresses. The analytical solution was compared with the FEM solution. An ANSYS 10.0 solution was employed in the numerical solution. Both solutions were compared with each other. These two solutions produced close agreements.
