Fastener stiffness in FEM
Fastener stiffness in FEM
(OP)
I have been using "Swift - Repairs to Damage Tolerant Aircraft" reference to calculate fastener stiffness for the FEM. Is this a good reference? or there are other correct way to calculate fastener stiffness? any suggestions willbe appreciated.





RE: Fastener stiffness in FEM
Swift is a good reference, so is Niu, or Huth. if you look at these models you'll see they all behave very differently.
