Thread Joint Design - Core Product of CMT
Behaviour modelling of a complex structural joint
where small details can be important for its load carrying capacity
23
Thread Joint Analysis - Characteristics of
Two stage analysis
– Pre stress state, e.g. tightening
– External load on joint
Indeterminate problem
– Even the ideal case has at least two load
transmission paths
– A real case often have several different
load transmission paths
Highly non linear problem
– Many contact surfaces where stiffness
varies
– Small design changes can have large
influence on stress state
Friction dependant
24
Nominal Method / Detailed Analysis
Nominal method
– Loads from structural analysis
Hand calculation
Measurement
FE analysis
– Nominal stress
– Allowed stress from design rules for
specific joint type used
BSK99 2.3% risk: 25MPa amp
8.8 bolt: 50MPa amp
12.9 bolt: 35MPa amp
Rolled tread: 80MPa amp
………
Detailed analysis
– Loads from structural analysis
Fem analysis
Measurement
– Local linear elastic/plastic stress
– Allowed stress from design rules for
specific material used
Mean stress reduction
Surface finish reduction
Failure risk reduction
Residual stress influence
– A geometry model must be
assumed for a FE analysis
Should it be made with nominal
measures or include tolerances?

A Paradigm for Conceptual Assessment of
Design Changes Influence on Life Length
Helpful for fast, non detailed, conceptual design studies, reusing available load
and component strength data
Recognizes three different design phases
– Load characterization, e.g. measurements
Define wear rates
– Component characterization, e.g. FE analysis results
Define Load case and component stress response
Define component capacity
– Configuration of different design setups
Different usage descriptions
Different feed assemblies, weight and inertia
Etc
Does not explicitly mention load cycles! The concept of load cycles has proven to be
very confusing to our customers)()( force
