Abstract

The loading state in spot‐like overlap joints (spot‐welded, clinched, riveted, bolted or others) can be determined by evaluating measured surface strains around the local joint (e.g. a weld spot). The measured strain pattern is decomposed into proportions of reference patterns representing simple basic loading states. Correlation analysis on the basis of Markov chains is used to achieve this.
