Strength Analysis of Hybrid (Bolt-Adhesive) Joint

Traditional joints such as weld, spot, rivet, etc. are used for connecting various Automotive, Aerospace, etc. parts. To enhance strength of already existing joints without changing existing design can be achieved by use of industrial adhesives. So here I used Araldite for enhancing its strength. Modeling of hybrid joint is done in CAD software and analyzing it for induced structural stresses and deformation in CAE software. It is also tested experimentally for the tensile load and results were correlated with analysis results.It can also improve the properties like, increasing load bearing capacity,used for extreme joint strength,more joint flexibility,leak proof,Improved Aesthetics and light weight.
