      Structural adhesive bonding is a key approach to making cars better and safer while also reducing their environmental impact. Structural Adhesive Bonding for Automotive Applications covers several aspects of bonded joints, including materials selection, design and manufacturing processes, quality control techniques, durability analysis, and repair methods. Practical examples support the investigations into the improvements that adhesively bonded configurations offer, including enhanced resistance to dynamic fatigue, increased body stiffness, better crash performance compared with other conventional joining methods, and greater corrosion resistance.The book provides a timely compendium of specialized knowledge alongside the current state of the art, which should appeal to a broad range of audiences—from students who wish to further their understanding of adhesive science and bonded vehicle structures to manufacturing and design engineers who wish to gain an appreciation of new technology in adhesive joining.
