    The performance of the adhesively bonded aerospace structures highly depends on the adhesion strength between the adhesive and adherents, which is affected by, in particular, the condition of the bonding surface. Among the various surface treatment methods, as state of the art, laser surface treatment is a suitable option for the CFRP composite structures to enhance the adhesion performance, adjusting the roughness and surface free energy with relatively minimizing the damage to the fibers. The aim of this study is the validation and evaluation of the adhesive bonding behavior of the laser surface-treated CFRP composite structures, using the finite element technique to perform a conservative prediction of the failure load and damage growth. Such objectives were achieved by executing both experimental and numerical analyses of the secondary bonded CFRP parts using a structural adhesive. In this regard, to complement physical experiments by means of numerical simulation, macro-scale 3D FEA of adhesively bonded Single Lap Joint and Skin-Spar Joint specimens has been developed employing the Cohesive Zone Model (CZM) technique in order to simulate bonding behavior in composite structures especially skin-spar relation in the aircraft wing-box.

    Comparison of Intelligent Parking Guidance System and Conventional System With Regard To Capacity Utilisation
    (Elsevier, 2021) Doğaroğlu, Bora; Çalışkanelli, S. Pelin; Tanyel, Serhan
    The capacity utilisation of car parks is an important issue because of space deficiency for infrastructure improvement in city centres. Intelligent Parking Guidance Systems (IPGSs) provide a solution to such shortages by managing car park capacity. In this study, an IPGS model is proposed concerning the occupancy condition of three surface car parks, and the proposed model is compared with the conventional system (CS) where drivers tend to prefer the closest parking utility. A multi-agent-based simulation program investigates five scenarios and the results compared regarding the occupancy ratio, wasted Value of Time (VoT), and emission of harmful gases. The simulation results illustrate that the proposed IPGS model manages to equilibrate the capacity utilisation of car parks and the parking search period compared with the CS model. Analysis results show that emissions for CS of CO2, CO, HC, and NOx are 398.71, 19.90, 3.29, and 21.14 g/s/veh, respectively. This is attributed to the extra search period in the CS models. Besides, the cost of this extra searching period in CS is estimated in terms of the value of time for Turkey, Germany, U.K., and France as 0.49, 0.93, 1.42, and 1.42 euro/veh respectively. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd
