Abstract
Adhesively bonding is becoming a widespread candidate technique for joining light-weight structural components. This paper investigates normal stress distribution in a single-lap adhesive joint using finite element method. Five layers of solid elements were used across the adhesive for obtaining an accurate indication of the variation of normal stress. All the numerical results obtained from the finite element analysis show that the spatial distribution of normal stress are similar for different interfaces. It can also be seen from the results that the left hand region is subjected to very high stress.
