Bonded Structural Joints Using Reversible Adhesives
About this Event
This webinar will address different design and engineering aspects included in the development of reversible adhesives and bonded joints using electromagnetic induction heating technique. Some of the interesting applications of this novel joining technique will also be presented. Further, an overview of an experimentally validated computational model will be presented that accounts for the process induced residual stresses.
