...Shunichiro Sawa; Yasuhisa Sekiguchi In designing a bolted joint consisting of dissimilar hollow cylinders, the load factor (the ratio of an increment in axial bolt force to an external tensile load) is important. However, no researches on the characteristics of bolted joints consisting...

... loading conditions and test parameters is paramount to a successful design. The motivation of this study is to characterize and analytically model the initial and retorque load relaxation response of a single 25% glass-fiber reinforced polytetrafluorethylene (PTFE) gasket-bolted joint with serrated flange...

..., a plastic joint is used. 29 09 2010 07 07 2011 04 11 2011 04 11 2011 Threaded fasteners are used in many applications because of their relative ease in assembly and disassembly for repair and maintenance purposes. The reliability and safety of bolted joints depends upon...

...Sayed A. Nassar; Xianjie Yang; Satya Vijay Teja Gandham; Zhijun Wu The nonlinear deformation behavior of clamped bolted joints under a separating service load is investigated using finite element and experimental techniques. Although the materials for the bolted joint remain in the linear elastic...

...Toshimichi Fukuoka; Masataka Nomura Distinctive mechanical behavior of bolted joints is caused by the helical shape of thread geometry. Recently, a number of papers have been published to elucidate the strength or loosening phenomena of bolted joints using three-dimensional finite element analysis...
