A Study of Self-Loosening and Fatigue Failure of Bolted Joint under Transverse Vibration - Influences of Property Class of Bolt and Plastic Region Tightening

Article Preview

Abstract:

In our previous study, loosening-fatigue tests under small transverse vibrations had been performed to elucidate bolt behavior and loosening-fatigue mechanism in the long life region. In this study, the influences of bolt property class and the plastic region tightening on loosening-fatigue characteristics under transverse vibration have been investigated. Result shows that bolt property class has little influence on the loosening-fatigue limits under transverse vibration. Result also shows that the transverse loosening-fatigue limit of the bolt which has been tightened to within the plastic region is lower than the transverse loosening-fatigue limit of the bolt that has been tightened to within the elastic region. This result is the opposite of the result of the axial fatigue characteristics of bolted joints.
