Abstract
This study aims to investigate the effects of the surface roughness of an aluminium substrate on the adhesive joint strength of aluminium–aluminium specimens prepared using epoxy and methyl methacrylate adhesives for shear strength tests. Aluminium surfaces were mechanically abraded using silicon carbide (SiC) papers with different grit sizes in two different modes. The evaluated bonding performance characteristics included the maximum bonding strength and residual strength of the adhesive joints after their exposure to various environmental conditions. The results demonstrated that excellent adhesion characteristics were obtained at the optimum SiC grit size (grit-80) regardless of the adhesive type. In addition, the topographical and morphological properties of the aluminium surfaces were studied before and after mechanical abrasion via surface profilometry and scanning electron microscopy, respectively. A possible mechanism was proposed to explain the observed shear strength changes and respective modes of fracture after sample exposure to air, de-ionised water, and aqueous salt solutions.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
