%X Finite element analysis (FEA) is applied to analyse a single lap adhesively bonded metallic joint. Three different parameters namely adhesive thickness, adherend thickness and crack length are selected and their effect on x-component of displacement and stress, vector sum displacement, Von Mises stress and crack opening displacement is studied. Results for each entity are discussed and hence presented. Different behaviour of x-component, vector sum and crack opening displacement for adhesive and adherend are noted. Finally overall conclusion is made.
