No problem, I'll keep you posted. What's more, on the bolts we're going to test, we're going to study the influence of bolt design, whether the bolt is rolled and then heat-treated, or heat-treated and then rolled. On the one hand in tension with centered loading, and on the other hand with...
We're going to clamp a traditional steel assembly. For the bolts, we'll be using stainless steel and traditional steel.
If you're interested, I'll be back here in a few months to discuss the results with you.
Pure tensile tests on bolted assemblies, firstly to characterize my screws, in order to identify the elastoplastic behavior law of the screw material.
Secondly, fatigue tests.
I'm going to do this with different tightening levels:
75% Re
Re
Re + 30% (Rm-Re)
Re + 60% (Rm-Re)
Re + 90% (Rm-Re)...
Hello everyone, to clarify things, I'm looking for information in the literature on tightening bolted assemblies in the plastic field, indeed as some discuss here sometimes it is beneficial to tighten an assembly in the plastic field. Here are a few references where authors were able to...
In my case, I'm specifically looking for articles on the plastic tightening of bolted joints and the potential benefits or otherwise that this could have. Some studies show that pre-stressing or applying tightening beyond the elastic limit is beneficial, as can be seen from Nagata's study...
Hello everyone, I'm new here, let me quickly introduce myself.
I'm a research engineer, and I'm working on "the behavior of an assembly subjected to tightening beyond its elastic capabilities"
To do this, we will carry out tensile tests with different stages of pre-load/tightening. However...
