Mechanical Properties Research of Planar K-Joint

Article Preview

Abstract:

The finite element models of the planar K-joint are established based on the finite element analysis software ANSYS. The bracing members are under the action of axial force and moment. Different rotational deformation values of the joint with different geometric parameters are reached with calculation and analysis. Results show that the deformation value approximate linearly increased with the increasing load of the bracing member. It also shows that the influence of the bracing member diameter and wall thickness is larger on rotational deformation values and the rotational deformation of the part of the K-joint is greatly influenced by the deformation of joint region.
