Influence of geometrical parameters on the strength of Hybrid CFRP-aluminium tubular adhesive jointsLavalette, N. (author), Bergsma, O.K. (author), Zarouchas, D. (author), Benedictus, R. (author)Tubular adhesive joints, used in truss structures to join pultruded carbon fibre-reinforced polymer members to aluminium nodes, are modelled with varying dimensions. The numerical model uses a Cohesive Zone Modelling formulation with a trapezoidal traction-separation law for the adhesive layer, and experimental tests are carried to validate...journal article 2020
