I want to perform fatigue analysis of bolted joints loaded in bearing. I am not able to find any literature for this analysis. Any help will be appreciated.
 
Can you clarify what exactly you need? What type of connection is involved, number of fasteners, materials used for clamped members, etc.? What is failing due to fatigue, the fastener or one of the clamped members?
 
Connection is between stainless steeel plate ( 0.09" and 0.21"). The plate are connected together with two rows of high strength bolts. I want to perform fatigue analysis based on the assumption that all loading will be transferred though bearing (considering zero friction). The failure is expected on the thin plate (tear out of plate).
