A bonded–riveted technique of fabrication and machine maintenance using hot-melt adhesives

Ensuring Reliability of Transportation Vehicles with Redundancy Methods

“…But in both cases it is necessary to provide repair backing-up to increase the efficiency of rescue and recovery operations, quality ensuring being of primary importance. Researches by Anopriyenko and Baurova confirm that quality of rescue and recovery operations is provided, primarily and mainly, technologically with consistent repair redundancy [21],…”

The performance evaluation for rivet bonded joints in production and machine maintenance

“…Today the riveting technique is increasingly being replaced by rivet bonding during assembly of large thin-walled structures in such industries as mechanical engineering, aircraft engineering, and car manufacturing [2][3][4].…”

“…The main demands for the adhesive when forming a rivet bonded joint are [1,[4][5]: -required deformation-strength properties, great heat and working environment resistance, durability of the joint; -required technological properties (curing temperature and time, pressure applied, viscosity (in case of initial liquid state of adhesive); -compatibility of the adhesive with the materials to be joint. Thermoreactive epoxy adhesives are traditionally used to create joints.…”

“…At present hybrid joints combining adhesive bonding with rivet joints are created in one of three possible ways [1,4]:…”

“…3). Error accumulation is typical for this approach and it may take place on each process step and consequently result in a poorer quality of finished products [4,9].…”
