• Application of the Time–Temperature Superposition Principle to Predict Long-Term Behaviour of an Adhesive for Use in Shipbuilding 

      Souto Silvar, Daniel Abelardo; Álvarez García, Ana; Díaz-Díaz, Ana-María; Rodríguez-Dopico, Francisco J.; López-Beceiro, Jorge (Springer Nature, 2024-02)
      [Abstract]: The use of adhesives in the marine sector is rather limited at the time being, but their use in specific areas of the ship would be an advantage due, among other things, to their low weight and low stress ...
    • Combined effect of seawater and load on methacrylate adhesive 

      Rodríguez-Dopico, Francisco J.; Carbas, R.J.C.; Borges, C.S.P.; Tarrío-Saavedra, Javier; Da Silva, L.F.M.; Álvarez García, Ana (Elsevier, 2023-04)
      [Abstract]: Although the shipbuilding industry is constantly demanding new advanced joining solutions, adhesive technology is not as developed in the marine as compared to other industries. The main reason is the lack ...
    • The effect of marine ageing on the mechanical properties of a structural adhesive 

      Souto Silvar, Daniel Abelardo; Álvarez García, Ana; Díaz-Díaz, Ana-María; Rodríguez-Dopico, Francisco J.; López-Beceiro, Jorge (Springer, 2023)
      [Abstract] The aim of this work is to study the behaviour of a structural adhesive in an aggressive setting such as the marine environment. For this purpose, an ageing procedure is carried out under marine environmental ...
