The strengthening mechanism of an ultrasonic vibration-strengthened adhesive bonding method was studied via experimental and numerical analyses. This processing method was found to enhance the bonding strength and stability of CFRP-to-aluminum joints by 40% and 60%, respectively. Ultrasonic vibratio...
