Analysis of Bolted Joints, 1998


Book Description

Comprises 40 papers from the July 1998 conference, arranged into sections on: FEA in the design and analysis of heat exchangers and pressure vessels; design with composite materials; stress classification in design and analysis; piping and components; and process equipment design and optimization. R







Handbook of Bolts and Bolted Joints


Book Description

Presenting time-tested standard as well as reliable emerging knowledge on threaded fasteners and joints, this book covers how to select parts and materials, predict behavior, control assembly processes, and solve on-the-job problems. It examines key issues affecting bolting in the automotive, pressure vessel, petrochemical, aerospace, and structural steel industries. The editors have successfully created a useful rather than scholarly handbook with chapters written in a straightforward, how-to-do-it manner. Theory is discussed only when necessary and the handbook's logical organization and thorough index enhances its usefulness.




Introduction to the Design and Behavior of Bolted Joints


Book Description

The fully updated Fifth Edition of John H. Bickford's classic work, updated by Michael Oliver, provides a practical, detailed guide for the design threaded bolted joints, the tightening of threaded joints, and the latest design procedures for long-term life. New sections on materials, threads, and their strength have been added, and coverage of FEA for design analysis is now included. Referencing the latest standards, this new edition combines fastener materials, explanation of how fasteners are made, and how fasteners fit together, supplementing the basic design coverage included in previous versions of this authoritative text. Introduction to the Design and Behavior of Bolted Joints: Non-Gasketed Joints will be of interest to engineers involved in the design and testing of bolted joints.




Analysis of Bolted Joints 1999


Book Description

The 20 papers were presented at the August 1999 conference in four technical sessions: gasket characteristics and testing for bolted joints, bolted joint design relating the proposed ASME code and European EN-1591 design tubes, bolted joints analysis using finite element analysis, and bolted joint g







Analysis of Bolted Joints, 2000


Book Description

Contains 18 papers presented at technical sessions on the analysis of bolted joints held during the July 2000 ASME conference. The major areas of discussion are gasket characteristics, metal-to-metal contact flanges, improved design and method, and finite element analysis. Topics include flow behavi




An Introduction to the Design and Behavior of Bolted Joints, Revised and Expanded


Book Description

Offering a broad-based review of the factors affecting the design, assembly and behaviour of bolted joints and their components in all industries, this work details various assembly options as well as specific failure modes and strategies for their avoidance. This edition features material on: the contact stresses between bolt head or nut face and the joint; thread forms, series and classes; the stiffness of raised face flange joints; and more.




Analysis of Bolted Joints--2003


Book Description

Annotation This entry in the proceedings series from the July 2003 conference discusses both computer methods for the analysis of bolted joints and the results of recent experimental investigations. Topics include the tightening sequence for bolted flange joint assembly, the effect of helical coil repair on the fatigue life of studs, the calculation of bolted flange connections of floating and metal-to-metal contact type, finite element analysis of the thermal and mechanical behaviors of bolted joints, and a web-enabled database for gasket parameters. No subject index is provided. Annotation (c)2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).




Reliability, Stress Analysis, and Failure Prevention Aspects of Adhesive and Bolted Joints, Rubber Components, Composite Springs


Book Description

Comprises 15 contributions from the 1998 International Mechanical Engineering Congress and Exposition. Representative paper topics include performance prediction of elastomeric gasket materials by compression stress relaxation; the damping characteristics of machine structures assembled by bonding; stress analysis of bolted circular flanged joints with tap bolts; and proper selection of auxiliary heat source for reducing thermal residual stresses during the welding process.
