Bolt modelling in DYNA3D

Creators

Description

The paper discusses modelling of bolted closures using DYNA3D, with particular reference to a steel container undergoing severe impact on the lid. Details of bolt thread, section shape and mesh refinement are all considered. A failure criterion is proposed and shown to agree well with test results. Small modifications to an existing material model are found to be necessary to simulate the consequences of bolt failure. (author)
