- The paper describes problems and suggested solutions in use of adhesive bonding for joining aluminum structures. Different ways to model and analyse a bonded joint are presented along with discussion on various advantages and drawbacks. As an example, the modelling and experimental results of a design exercise on a vehicle front cross-member are presented. The use of detailed joint modelling in determining the influence of local joint geometry on both adhesive and metal stresses is also demonstrated.
