The temperature field in the adhesively bonded single lap steel joint after a thermal shock (100 °C, 10s) and the influence of the restraint on the thermal stress in the joint was investigated using elasto-plastic finite element method (FEM). The results showed that the temperature in the overlap region is symmetrically distributed to the bondline after the thermal shock. Five kinds of constraints were applied in the study and it is found that the peak value of the thermal stresses were occurred at the points near the free ends of the adherend lap zone along the mid-bondline under the action of constraining the adherends in the direction of both transversal and longitudinal. The symbol of the longitudinal stress Sx and peel stress Sy is negative.

The effect of the thermal shock time on the thermal stress distributed in the adhesively bonded steel single lap steel joint under a 100 C thermal shock was investigated using elasto-plastic finite element method (FEM). The results showed that the temperature is symmetrically distributed to the bondline in the overlap region and the lowest one at the mid-bondline increases as the time of the thermal shock elongated (4 s to 40 s). And all the peak values of the stresses at the mid-bondline and the zone of negative Sx in adherend decreased as the time of the thermal shock elongated.

The effect of the thermal shock temperature on the thermal stress distributed in the adhesively bonded steel single lap steel joint under a 10 s thermal shock was investigated using elasto-plastic finite element method (FEM). The results showed that both the highest temperature at the surface and the lowest one at the mid-bondline increases as the temperature of the thermal shock raised (80 C to 140 C) and all the peak values of the stresses at the mid-bondline and the zone of negative Sx in adherend increased as the temperature of the thermal shock elevated.

The influence of fillets with different geometry shape on the stress distribution in aluminum alloy weld-bonded single lap joint was investigated using elasto-plastic finite element method (FEM). The results show that it is advantageous of reducing stress concentration in adhesive layer near the ends of the lap zone in single lap weld-bonded aluminum joints and part of the stress transferring from adhesive layer to the nugget when the joints with a couple of right triangle fillets over other shapes. The load-bearing capacity of the whole weld-bonded joints may be improved. The full-triangular fillet is recommended that it be more advantageous of decreasing the stress peak value and making the stress distribution in overlap zone more uniform.

The effect of recessing on the stresses distributed along the mid-bondline in both standard single lap joints and co-axial ones were analyzed using elasto-plastic finite element method (FEM). The results obtained show that the values of the peak stresses of all the stresses distributed in the mid-bondline were changed greatly as the preformed angle in over lap zone was about 10 0 when the high elastic modulus adhesive is used. The effect of the elastic modulus level on the stress distribution (especially the peak stresses) is small in the middle part of the lap zone. When taken the stress distributed in the middle part of the lap zone into account, there is nearly no significant difference between the peel stress distributed in the standard joint and co-axial single lap joint when the adhesives with lower elastic modulus was used. It is recommended that a co-axial joint is suitable for the recessing joint made by aluminum alloy and a higher elastic modulus adhesive.

The influence of the fillet with different elastic modulus on the stress distributed in weld-bonded aluminum alloy single lap joint was investigated using elasto-plastic finite element method. The results show that the peak values of the stress along the mid-bondline at the points near the fillet edge were increased as the elastic modulus of the fillet increased. But at points near the both ends of the adherend in over lap zone as well as in the region of the nugget the peak stresses were decreased except longitudinal stress Sx. The peak value of Seqv decreased first, and then it increased again as the elastic modulus in fillet increased. The load-bearing capacity of the whole weld-bonded joints may be improved for the fillet with Adhesive B (825 MPa) for the relative high stress region in nugget was wider and the stress distribution in overlap zone was more uniform.
