Abstract The present paper deals with a numerical investigation on hybrid bolted joints between unidirectional, quasi isotropic Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) composite and aluminium alloy plates, subjected to traction loads. CFRP composite materials are widely used in aerospace applications, where requirements of weight reduction and structural high performances are very compelling. Composite materials generally present high resistance to fatigue and corrosion but the presence of joints in the structure can cause structural problems and then decrease the structural reliability of jointed component.
A hybrid bolted joint constituted of a metal plate, made of aluminium alloy, and a carbon fiber reinforced… More >
