Among the myriad joining techniques, adhesive bonding technique is widely used to join complex large-scale composite structures because of its numerous advantages compared traditional techniques. This article profusely analysed various techniques for ameliorating performance joints, such as methods (secondary bonding, co-bonding, co-curing, and multi-material bonding), surface modification (plasma, laser treatment, grinding, etc.), additional reinforcement (Z pin, wire mesh, nanofiller, etc), different joint geometries (stepped half-stepped balanced scarf joints). Also, effect adhesives fabrication on static dynamic CFRP GFRP-based joints was studied in detail. Moreover, this review addresses finite element modelling optimisation adhesively bonded joints. It has been observed that methods, enhance roughness adherend, addition nanofillers, variations geometry greatly influence shear strength, fracture toughness, fatigue, vibration behaviour FRP
