Inhaltsangabe

Adhesive bonding is often effective, efficient, and often necessary way to join mechanical structures. This important book reviews the most recent improvements in adhesive bonding and their wide-ranging potential in structural engineering. Part one reviews advances in the most commonly used groups of structural adhesives with chapters covering topics such as epoxy, polyurethane, silicone, cyanoacrylate, and acrylic adhesives. The second set of chapters covers the various types of adherends and pre-treatment methods for a range of structural materials such as metals, composites and plastics. Chapters in Part three analyse methods and techniques with topics on joint design, life prediction, fracture mechanics and testing. The final group of chapters gives useful and practical insights into the problems and solutions of adhesive bonding in a variety of hostile environments such as chemical, wet and extreme temperatures. With its distinguished editor and international team of contributors, Advances in structural adhesive bonding is a standard reference for structural and chemical engineers in industry and the academic sector.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

David A. Dillard is Adhesive and Sealant Science Professor, in the Biomedical Engineering and Mechanics Department at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, USA. He has worked extensively in the field of adhesive bonding, having experience in structural adhesives for aerospace, automotive, and infrastructure applications, adhesives and coatings for microelectronic applications, pressure sensitive adhesives, elastomeric adhesives and sealants, and polymeric membranes. Prof. Dillard has authored or co-authored over 185-refereed publications and regularly teaches courses in adhesion science, polymer viscoelasticity, and sustainable energy solutions. His research involves developing test methods and predictive models for understanding and estimating the performance and durability of polymeric materials, adhesives and bonded joints, using the principles of fracture mechanics and viscoelasticity. Over the past several years, he has become active in applying these concepts to sustainable energy products including proton exchange membrane fuel cells and solar photovoltaic applications. Prof. Dillard has received several awards in recognition of his research.
