Abstract: In this study, a coupled shear stressdiffusion model is developed for the analysis of adhesively bonded single lap joints (SLJs) by applying Fickian diffusion model to the adhesive layer. Differential equations of equilibrium ...

Abstract: In this study, the Fickian diffusion formulation is extended to the adhesive layer of a single lap joint (SLJ) model, in order to develop a coupled peel and shear stress-diffusion model. Constitutive equations are formulated ...
