Finite Element Modeling of K-Monel Bolts under Static Loading and Dynamic Shock Loading

The Naval Undersea Warfare Center has funded a project to investigate the accuracy of various bolt models used to represent actual shipboard bolted connections within an analytical shock survivability assessment. The ultimate goal within this project is to develop finite element bolt representations...

description The Naval Undersea Warfare Center has funded a project to investigate the accuracy of various bolt models used to represent actual shipboard bolted connections within an analytical shock survivability assessment. The ultimate goal within this project is to develop finite element bolt representations that are not only computationally efficient, but also accurate. A significant task within this effort involved the development of highly detailed finite element models of bolted connections under various load configurations. Accordingly, high-resolution bolt models were developed and incorporated into simulations of four bolted connection test arrangements: static shear, static tension, dynamic shear, and dynamic tension. These simulation results are validated against experimental data from physical testing of each configuration. Future research will focus on exploring simplified finite element bolt representations and comparing these against the high-resolution results.
