Effect of Preload on Tensile Fracture of Variable Cross-Section Bolts: Experiment and Simulation
High-strength bolts are widely used in structural connections, and the preload affects the failure behavior of bolts. In this paper, a variable cross-section bolt (VCSB) with weakened strength to induce fracture is designed. Quasi-static tensile experiments with different preload torque values were...
