Crack Propagation in Bonded Joints

This book corvers wide range of literature review available for use by researchers to assess fatigue crack propagation.Further more finite element studies are presented.In the former part, historical background of adhesive bonding is traced. The useful techniques for better adhesive designing, applications, advantages and some limitations, which adhere to their wide spread are covered. Fatigue and the approaches to analyse fatigue are successfully discussed.
