ABSTRACT

Computer aided models are used to present physical systems. These models further find their use in various type of analysis including static and dynamic analysis. In this work computer aided modeling of components of bolted joint and their finite element analysis has been carried out through ANSYS workbench software under definite loading conditions, to obtain different stress and displacement values. The models of the plates, bolt, nut have been made in a CAD software. The model thus made has been imported in the Ansys Workbench for the analysis using the IGES file format. The analysis includes detailed stress analysis of a single lap bolted joint. The spatial variation of total deformation, directional deformation, equivalent stresses and principal stresses is shown. The effect of preload has also been investigated on all these quantities. It has been shown that with increasing pretension the deformation and stresses increase.
