Effects of Disbonds, Lightning Strikes, and Low-Velocity Impact Damage on Adhesively Bonded Composite Joints

FAA technical report (DOT/FAA/AR-09/4) from Wichita State University's National Institute for Aviation Research investigating the effects of disbonds, lightning strikes, and low-velocity impact damage on adhesively bonded composite joints. Study combines DIC-based full-field strain measurements with mechanical testing to characterize damage tolerance of b...
