Abstract

Fatigue tests on adhesive-bonded box section beams under torsion, which are typical members of an automobile body structure, were carried out. Using the finite element three-dimensional elastostatic analysis, the stress intensity factor for interface crack was analyzed and the results of fatigue tests were tried to be arranged by the stress intensity factor range ΔKIII. Judging from the above, we conclude that it is possible unifomly evaluate the torsional fatigue strength of this beam by using ΔKIII.
