Experimental Study of the Impact of Glass Beads on Adhesive Joint Strength and Its Failure Mechanism

The use of modern structural adhesives provides a lightweight, practical, and high strength joining methodology, which is increasingly being adopted in the automotive and aeronautical sectors, among many others. However, the strict mechanical performance standards that must be met in these applicati...
