This paper aims at investigating the nonlinear behavior of a system which is consisting of two free-free beams which are connected by a nonlinear joint. The nonlinear system is modelled as an in-extensional beam with Timoshenko beam theory. In addition, large amplitude vibration assumption is taken into account in order to obtain exact results. The nonlinear assumption in the system necessities...

A detailed nonlinear finite element model was established based on completed experiments to investigate the behavior of a blind-bolted T-stub composite joint that connects beam concrete-filled square tube column. This accomplished by comparing experimental results and simulation using hysteresis curve, failure mode, plastic deformation strain development ensure reliability accuracy model. param...

The development of leakage and strength a metallic bolted flange joint are investigated in this work. Finite element analyses 2D 3D have been developed using ANSYS to study steel bolt with an aluminium gasket. pressure-penetration criterion (PPNC) has used model fluid propagation between the Validation was performed benchmark test, published joint; agreement results is excellent. Results showed...
