The work is focused on the static and fatigue strength of interference fitted connections supplemented with anaerobic adhesive (Hybrid Joints). Through axial release tests it is demonstrated that the addition of the adhesive always improves the performance of the joint: the main achievable benefits can be summarized in (i) the possibility of increasing the load transfer capability with the same joint geometry and (ii) reducing both the weight and the stress field of the joint with the same load transfer capability. The aim of the work is to provide some relevant information on the static and fatigue strength properties in case of both steel-aluminium components (Mixed Hybrid Joints) and steel-steel components (Steel Hybrid Joints). Proposed results derive from a collection of 200 experimental tests performed by the Authors on a high strength, single-component adhesive, which cures anaerobically (Loctite 648®).

Abstract
The work is focused on the static and fatigue strength of interference fitted connections supplemented with anaerobic adhesive (Hybrid Joints). Through axial release tests it is demonstrated that the addition of the adhesive always improves the performance of the joint: the main achievable benefits can be summarized in (i) the possibility of increasing the load transfer capability with the same joint geometry and (ii) reducing both the weight and the stress field of the joint with the same load transfer capability. The aim of the work is to provide some relevant information on the static and fatigue strength properties in case of both steel-aluminium components (Mixed Hybrid Joints) and steel-steel components (Steel Hybrid Joints). Proposed results derive from a collection of 200 experimental tests performed by the Authors on a high strength, single-component adhesive, which cures anaerobically (Loctite 648®).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
