Abstract
Abstract The use of adhesive joints is increasing in aerospace, aviation, automotive, construction and marine industry due to their easily applicable properties, low-costs and light weights compared to traditional jointing methods such as bolts, rivets, welding and soldering. Due to the high fatigue strength, resistance to seawater corrosion and light weight, aluminum alloys, with their high satiety, fracture strength, light weight, high specific strength and good dimensional stability and other properties, glass fiber reinforced composite materials have widespread uses.
