This paper deals with the effects of rivet-hole tolerance in CFRP/Al single-lap blind riveted
joint by combining the experimental tests and numerical simulation approaches. The …

In this study, the 3D digital image correlation (3D-DIC) technique is extensively used to
explain the tensile behaviors of single-lap only bolted (OB) and hybrid bolted-bonded (HBB) …

Composite bolted joints are widely used on primary and secondary load-bearing structures
of aircrafts. However, investigating the damage progression and failure of composite bolted …

Carbon fiber is the most common reinforcing phase in composite materials. However, it is
difficult to obtain the performance parameters of the monofilament. In this study, the …

Interference fit has advantages in improving fatigue behaviors of composite bolted joints;
however, interference fit bolt insertion tends to cause damages in laminates weakening joint …

This paper reports an experimental study on interfacial behavior and preload response of
composite bolted interference-fit joints under assembly and thermal conditions. The bolt …

As the controlled research of Dynamic Installation (DI) and Static Installation (SI), a new
interference installation method was developed based on electromagnetic loading to …

During the bolt installation process of interference-fit composite structure, the bolt will come
to contact with the composite, forming the contact interface. Understanding the topography …

The general definition of a novel finite element for structural analysis of composite bolted
joints is presented. The work aims to define an accurate and computationally efficient …

This paper deals with the modeling of bearing behavior and damage evolution of single-lap
bolted composite interference-fit joints. Shear nonlinearity constitutive relations for …
