Joints exist widely in tunnel engineering. Studying the deformation characteristics of bolted joint is beneficial for preventing rock mass disasters. To reveal joints, elastic solutions radial joints under compression-shear load were derived, which based on Lame solution mechanics and displacement coordination condition interface between bolt (assuming that at equal). Then, distance from any po...

Often unbraced, the stability of steel storage racks may depend solely on the pallet beam to upright connector and on the stiffness of the base plate to floor connection ([1]). This paper presents experimental results from cyclic tests performed on portal beam to upright bolted moment connections intended for cold-formed steel drive-in and drive-through storage racks. In storage racks, portal b...

The analytical method for the calculation of properties a bolted joint established by structural Eurocodes proposes T-stub as component characterization tension and compression zones in moment joints. In this article, review state art on is developed, where works developed since it was initially defined, from perspectives formulation, experimentation numerical simulation are summarized discusse...

Abstract The pretensioning force in bolted joints enhances the lateral strength of connections, and causes embedment metal washers into wood. Despite significance behavior design joints, its mechanism has yet to be fully understood. In this study, a washer wood along radial direction was examined through three-dimensional nonlinear finite-element analysis (FEA). FEA results were validated by co...

In the current work, process-related thermo-mechanical changes in the rivet microstructure, joint local and global mechanical properties, and their correlation with the rivet plastic deformation regime were investigated for Ti-6Al-4V (rivet) and glass-fiber-reinforced polyester (GF-P) friction-riveted joints of a single polymeric base plate. Joints displaying similar quasi-static mechanical per...

Abstract Few work concerned on the flexural strength of carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP)-aluminum fuselage frames with bolted splice joints used in aeronautical industry. To provide help for design CFRP aircraft strcutures, this paper investigated behavior CFRP-aluminum experimentally. Firstly, were fabricated mid-span joints. The comprised: or unreinforced aluminum plates to frames. bolt...

In order to study the mechanical behavior of corroded bolt-sphere joints and predict bearing capacity in a corrosive environment, bolt-sphere-connection bolt-sphere-joint specimens with differing degrees corrosion were obtained by accelerated corrosion. The tensile properties connections members tested, respectively, effects different on bolted spherical studied. Finally, numerical simulation w...
