Download or read book The Mechanics of Threaded Fasteners and Bolted Joints for Engineering and Design written by Toshimichi Fukuoka and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2022-11 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mechanics of Threaded Fasteners and Bolted Joints for Engineering and Design outlines how threaded fasteners and bolted joints fail, how these failures can be remedied, and ultimately how to avoid them altogether through tightening methods, material strength, and avoiding loosening. The book demonstrates how to select the appropriate tightening method and determine the optimal tightening procedure for varying nominal diameters. Using the finite element method, the book discusses characteristics of stress concentration and fatigue strength and covers bolt force variation due to elastic interaction. Outlines various tightening methods such as torque control, angle control, direct tension, and thermal expansion Demonstrates methods for preventing fatigue failure Discusses the effect of high and low temperature thermal loads on the strength of bolted joints by looking at thermal contact resistance at the interface
