Description
Structural Adhesive Bonding for Automotive Applications covers materials selection, design and manufacturing processes, quality control techniques, durability analysis, and repair methods. Practical examples support investigations into the improvements that adhesively bonded configurations offer (including resistance to dynamic fatigue, body stiffness, crash performance compared with other conventional joining methods, and enhanced corrosion resistance). The book provides a timely compendium of specialized knowledge for students who wish to further their understanding of adhesive science and bonded vehicle structures and manufacturing, but it is also ideal for design engineers who wish to gain an appreciation of new technology in adhesive joining.
