Analyse asymptotique d'un assemblage collé en élasticité non linéaire

Abstract

Within the framework of nonlinear elasticity, we study the behaviour of a bonded joint formed by two adherends and a joint of thickness $\text{εh}$. When the stiffness of the adhesive is of order $\text{ε}$ with respect to the adherends, the analysis gives us a limit model where the constitutive equations of the adherend are only linear. We show existence of solutions of the model and discuss the unicity.
