Hi,
Is is appropriate to consider the the joint friction coefficient when the joint is held together with rivets?
I use it when talking about bolted connections and would have thought it would not be too dissimilar in riveted connections
While I am on the subject what coefficient would be...
Hi,
I am interested in developing some simple software for our company to aid in the selection of bolts, ideally using the VDI 2230 and interested in anyones ideas for what to include. Basically I design simple L-Brackets with the back part fixed to walls and horizontal part of the bracket...
Can adhesive be modelled when only the Tensile and shear strength is known? I am wondering whether you could create a material in 3d and model the adhesive as a 3mm slab under the structure in question, ready for analysis
Thanks

Hi all,
I am after references to any existing standards pertaining to 3D CAD modelling.
Basically I want to write a procedure for our company and thought that procedures used within the Aircraft industry probably exist and are of a high standard

Hi,
I have been reading through some of the threads here and technical papers on quasi static analysis and am trying to understand the procedure for definition.
If i understand it correctly, say I have a base excitation of 2g 11ms 1/2 sine. So, Fp = 1 /2(0.011) = 45.45Hz
So, if i now run a...
Hi everyone,
Can anyone give any guidance in simulating bolts within an FEA analysis?
I have seen some FEA reports of brackets bolted to stiff structures(ship/train walls),where instead of modelling the wall structure and bolts, they have simply included the bracket and assigned a fixed...
Hello all new to this forum
I have a question about the remote mass facility in cosmos. I have used ANSYS previously which had a facility called point mass. When this was positioned, it was shown in the preview as a ball, showing the cog of the mass at its xyz co-ordinates.
I have tried the...
