POTSDAM â With an $800,000 grant from the Office of Naval Research Advanced Naval Platforms Division, Clarkson University Prof. Marcias Martinez (Principal Investigator) and Prof. Craig Merrett (Co-PI) from the Department of Mechanical and Aeronautical Engineering in collaboration with Prof. Sumona Mondal (Co-PI) from the Department of Mathematics will begin work on developing mathematical physics-based models for determining the time to failure of bonded joints.
Adhesive-bonded joints are of interest for use in connection of U.S. Navy aircraft and vessel structural components. However, these joints are not currently in use, despite their potential benefits. Mechanical joints are most commonly used, but these joints are known to produce stress concentration regions, moisture ingress areas, and increased structural weight. Reliable, adhesively bonded joints, with no metal fasteners, would reduce structural weight and the manufacturing and operational costs of Navy assets. Widesp
