Influence of Thread Root Radius on Maximum Local Stresses at Large Diameter Bolts under Axial Loading

Abstract

In the thread root area of the threaded bolts submitted to axial loading occur local stresses, higher that nominal stresses calculated for the bolts. These local stresses can generate failure and can reduce the fatigue life of the parts. The paper is focused on the study of the influence of the thread root radius on the maximum local stresses. A large diameter trapezoidal bolt was subjected to a static analysis (axial loading) using finite element simulation.
