Strength prediction of a single lap joint under impact using meshless methods

The use of adhesive joints in structures subjected to dynamic loads, such as wind turbines and cars, makes it important to study them under those conditions. Numerical models are an integral part of that. Commonly the Finite Element Method (FEM) is used, but meshless methods can be an interesting al...
