Analysis and design of structural bonded joints

Analysis and Design of Structural Bonded Joints is the first book to focus on failure prediction, damage tolerance, optimum design and stitched joining technology for composite materials.

Joining design is critical in a structural design process, particularly for weight sensitive structures, and bonded joints are being increasingly utilized (particularly in the aeronautical, automotive, civil and maritime industries). This unique book will prove to be an informative and essential resource for all engineers and researchers involved with composite structures.
