Some joint-design considerations are universal; others vary with the assembly methods used. Each joining technique has particular design requirements, while certain joint requirements may suggest a ...

New research analyzing the bolted joints used in the aeronautical industry has determined the optimum force that should be applied so that they may better withstand the variations in temperature that ...

Analyzing one-bolt joints with FEA would usually call for modeling a small assembly, friction, and contact. And unless the design is for a limited life, the complex effort is overkill. Boltcalc ...

Gasketed bolted flange joints continue to be a critical component in a wide variety of industrial applications, ranging from pressure vessels to large-scale piping systems. The analysis and ...

The dynamic analysis of bolted joints using finite element modeling encompasses a sophisticated convergence of computational techniques and experimental validation to simulate the non-linear ...

This release is available in Spanish. The idea for this research arose when the problems of the large structural components of an airplane were being analyzed. These components are made up of a large ...
