Determination of the Preload of Bolts for Structural Health Monitoring of a Multi-Bolted Joint: FEM Approach
The reliability and safety of bolted joints is one of the crucial engineering problems during design of mechanical structures. In this paper, finite element method was used to investigate an asymmetrical, seven-bolted joint. The modelling takes into account the phenomenon of friction and the mechani...
