Description
Summary:Weight reduction remains one of the key factors for various industries. Inevitably this will result in multi-material designs where the most appropriate material is selected for each part. A key enabler for such a multimaterial design is joining two materials with optimized weight which is balanced with the need to keep manufacturing costs down. Further, it is well known that these parts are subjected to dynamic load while in service conditions, and in order to evaluate dynamic parameters for design purpose an adhesively bonded dissimilar joint between Aluminium and Mild steel plates has been investigated experimentally through traditional "strike method" of modal testing. FE simulation is also carried out and are compared with experimental results and found to be in good agreement.
