Influence of Parameters in a Hybrid Joints (SPR/Bonded) GFRP-Aluminum

Abstract:

Self-Piercing Riveting (SPR) is receiving more recognition as a possible and effective solution to join body panels and structures. For example self-piercing riveting is still the first choice for the most well-known automotive car industries when considering the intensive use of aluminum alloy. To combine the advantages of the two joints techniques, in the last years hybrid joints combining a classical mechanical fastening (riveting) and a classical adhesive bonding, or a co-cured joint, have attracted great interest.In the present paper the static behavior of single-lap hybrid joints (SPR-bonded) between GFRP and aluminum through experimental tests. In particular, tensile strength, energy absorption and failure modes of studied joints were investigated through tensile tests.
