Abstract

In this paper, a theoretical analysis to evaluate the stress field in the adhesive layers of tubular bonded joints subjected to torsional loading is presented. The formulation is suitable to study the static behavior of the joint under general loading conditions as well as steady-state behavior under cyclic loading conditions. The adhesive material is modeled using linear viscoelasticity and numerical results for the shear stresses in the adhesives, joint compliance and joint loss factor are presented for various cases that provide some insights and guidelines in the design of the joint.
