Anti-theft safety caps for bolted joints are necessary to ensure the safety of citizens and prevent theft of manholes, bridge guardrails, bulletin boards, subway safety handrails and others. Safety caps enhance the look of bolted joints, avert accidents that involve hitting the head of bolts, hamper them from coming loose by covering the head of bolts. This study focuses on press die design methods and press molding condition setting to resolve bursting and cracks in products, and on molding material selection and heat treatment technologies to boost life extension.

Mechanical joints such as bolted or riveted joints are widely used in mechanical components. The reliable determination of the stress intensity factors for cracks in bolted joints is needed to evaluate the safety and fatigue life of them. The weight function method is an efficient technique to calculate the stress intensity factors for various loading conditions because only the stress analysis of an uncracked model is required. In this paper the mixed-mode stress intensity factors for cracks in bolted joints are obtained by weight function method, in which the coefficients of weight function are determined by finite element analyses for reference loadings. Critical inclined angle that mode I stress intensity factor becomes maximum is determined and the effects of crack length and the magnitude of clearance on critical inclined angle are investigated.

본 논문에서는 항공우주분야 등 여러 분야에서 사용되는 복합재 볼트 체결부에 대해 점진적 파손 해석을 수행하였다. 단일 볼트 체결 시편에 대한 해석을 통해 해석 방법에 대해 검증하고 이를 이용해 이 중 볼트 체결 시편의 점진적 파손에 관해 연구하였다. 점진적 파손 해석을 위해 Hashin 파손 판정식과 에너지 기반 점진적 파손모델을 사용하였다. 복합재료의 4가지 파손모드에 대해 손상변수를 정의했다. 이에 따른 물성저하를 계산하였다. 단일 볼트로 체결된 시편에 대해 시험 및 점진적 파손해석을 수행하여 시험 및 해석결과를 비교한 결과 약 5% 이하의 오차로 해석의 신뢰성을 확인하였다. 이중 볼트 체결 시편에 대해 점진적 파손해석을 이용해 볼트 원공으로부터 모서리까지의 거리와 볼트 사이의 간격을 고려하여 이중 볼트 체결부에 대한 매개변수 분석을 수행하였다.

By using an experimental approach recently developed to determine the torque-tension relationship for bearing frictional characteristics of several typical bolted joints were studied. The experimental approach allows the direct determination of the bearing friction between the nut and its bearing surface. Detailed friction studies were made on the influences of the size and shape of the hole, the use of a slot in a bolted joint, contact area and position, and other factors such as turning speed, coating, and the use of wax on the bearing surface. The contact area and position of the washer have a marginal effect on the bearing friction. The organic coating on the nuts reduces the bearing friction significantly. Nuts with organic coating over a washer with zinc finish provide the smallest and the most consistent bearing friction. The results from the experimental investigation will be helpful for the better design of bolted joints bearing friction. The results from the experimental investigation Will be helpful for the better design of bolted joints.

Many studies on the finite element modeling for bolted joints have proceeded, but the structures with bolted joints are complicated in shape and it is difficult to find out the characteristics according to joint condition. Usually, experimental methods have been used for bolted joint analysis. A reliable and practical finite element modeling technique for structure with bolted joints is very important for engineers in industry. In this study, three kinds of model are presented; a detailed model, a practical model and a simple model. The detailed model is modeled by using 3-D solid element and gap element, and the practical model is modeled by using shell element (a portion of bolt head) and beam element (a portion of bolt body), the simple model is modeled by simplifying practical model without using gap elements. Among these models, the simple model has the least degree of freedom and show the effect of memory reduction of 59%, when compared with the detailed model.

A reliable and practical finite element modeling technique to estimate the behavior of complex structures with bolted joints is important for engineeres in the industry. Accordingly, we have examined several simplified modeling techinques which do not require the use of special elements such as a gap eloement. The dynamic and static erxperiments have confirmed that the technique to model the bolted joints with eight-noded three dimensional elemnts which fill the bolt space gdives most satisfactory results.

There have been lots of efforts to analyze the dynamic characteristics of mechanical systems. However, it is difficult to know the dynamic characteristics of mechanical systems composed of many parts with joints. Specially, in case of a bolted joint structure, no effective modeling method has been defined to acquire dynamic characteristics of the structure, using the finite element (FE) analysis. In this research, a linear dynamic model is developed for bolted joints and large interfaces using con frusta method and linear spring elements, respectively. The developed modeling method for bolted joints is verified based on the experimental result.

횡방향 맞대기 용접부를 갖는 고장력볼트 시험체를 대상으로 정적 및 피로실험을 실시하여 맞대기용접부가 마찰이음부의 정적 및 피로거동에 미치는 영향을 규명하였다. 그 결과 마찰면 내부 및 외부에 맞대기 용접부가 존재하면 이음부의 피로강도는 감소하는 경향이 있으나 시방서에서 규정하는 피로한계(B등급) 이상을 만족하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 특히 피로강도는 마찰면 외부에 맞대기 용접부가 존재하는 경우가 더 낮은 경향을 나타내었다.

This paper presents a finite element model for predicting the monotonic behaviour of bolted endplate joints connecting steel-concrete composite walls and steel beams. The demountable Hollo-bolts are utilised to facilitate the quick installation and dismantling for replacement and reuse. In the developed model, material and geometric nonlinearities were included. The accuracy of the developed model was assessed by comparing the numerical results with previous experimental tests on hollow/composite column-to-steel beam joints that incorporated endplates and Hollo-bolts. In particular, the Hollo-bolts were modelled with the expanded sleeves involved, and different material properties of the Hollo-bolt shank and sleeves were considered based on the information provided by the manufacture. The developed models, therefore, can be applied in the present study to simulate the wall-to-beam joints with similar structural components and characteristics. Based on the validated model, the authors herein compared the behaviour of wall-to-beam joints of two commonly utilised composite walling systems (Case 1: flat steel plates with headed studs; Case 2: lipped channel section with partition plates). Considering the ease of manufacturing, onsite erection and the pertinent costs, composite walling system with flat steel plates and conventional headed studs (Case 1) was the focus of present study. Specifically, additional headed studs were pre-welded inside the front wall plates to enhance the joint performance. On this basis, a series of parametric studies were conducted to assess the influences of five design parameters on the behaviour of bolted endplate wall-to-beam joints. The initial stiffness, plastic moment capacity, as well as the rotational capacity of the composite wall-to-beam joints based on the numerical analysis were further compared with the current design provision.
