  1. 1. Plastic deformation of hot riveted joints acting in shear

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Victor Gard; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A popular way to maintain old rivet connections is to reuse the old connection and replace the old rivets with high grade steel bolts. In doing so the behavior of the joint can change due to the new geometry, where a gap between the new bolt and the rivet hole emerges. READ MORE

  3. 2. A comparative study on hole quality criteria on CFRP drilling

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell Produktion

    Author : Jerome Paul Raenius Jeevanandham; Sakthivel Balaji; [2021]
    Keywords : CFRP; Composites; Hole quality; Delamination; Uncut fibers; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Drilling is an essential hole-making operation in the modern industrial world. Drilling operation is comparatively challenging in composites when compared to metals. Composites are heterogeneous and possess a high strength-to-weight ratio which makes it a challenge in composite drilling. READ MORE

  4. 3. Lifespan improvement of bolted connection inside the turbine

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner

    Author : Clément Helterlin; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In order to reduce fuel consumption of aircraft engines, components are constantly optimized. This improvement is pushing component’s limits to the farthest they can handle. That’s why engine manufacturers have to guarantee a minimum engine lifespan. The evaluation of these lifespans is made on each component. READ MORE

  5. 4. The Crocodile Nose Connection : Design and laboratory tests on a novel connection for structural hollow sections

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och brand

    Author : Kristoffer Öhman; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The great properties and clear form makes the circular hollow section (CHS) appreciated by architects. When connecting these sections today it is common to use gusset plates. The knifeplate connection where the gusset plate is inserted into a slot made at the end of a circular section, is the most used connection today. READ MORE

  6. 5. Validation of blast simulation models via drop-tower tests

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Joakim Rydman; [2018]
    Keywords : Screw; bolt; screw joint; bolted connection; simulation; model; FEM; FEA; finite element; LS-DYNA; drop-tower tests; validation;

    Abstract : This study aims to validate a screw joint simulation model used by BAE Systems in LS-DYNA during blast simulations. It is important that the screw joint simulation model is physically correct, since the simulation results can influence major design decisions. READ MORE
