Abstract
The V-Cart project was a coUaboration between Donkervoort Automobielen B.V. and Delft technical university, with a common goal to design a composite chassis for the next generation of cars. This research originates from the need of a reusable adhesive bond for connecting large structural composite parts. Unfortunately, the collaboration ended during the research. This thesis focuses on the design of the reusable bond itself, with application in a small sportscar chassis in mind.
