Display Bolt/Nut Resultant Forces

Displays a table of resultant bolt and nut forces

This tool is supported for both structural static and dynamic analysis.

Important: To access this tool, an analysis must be solved first.

Structural Static Analysis

  1. Project Tree中,点击机构分析分支,打开分析工作台。
  2. Analysis Workbench 中,选择 紧固件合力 > 螺栓/螺母合力
    The Bolt/nut forces dialog will open and display a table of resultant forces for tightened or not tightened bolts and nuts.
  3. Go to the desired tab to display either Bolts or Nuts.
    Note: If there are no bolts and/or nuts in the model, the respective tab(s) will not be available.
  4. Select any column header to sort the table by that header.
    Tip: Number of nut turns is also listed in the forces summary for bolts tightened via torque and axial force.
  5. Select any row to display a forces summary.
    Note: When the resultant axial force of the bolt/nut deviates by over 10%, the following occurs:
    • In the Project Tree, a warning icon appears next to the Results branch. Right-click on Results and select Warnings from the context menu.
      Figure 1.
    • In the Bolt/Nut forces dialog, nuts with significant deviation are marked in red and deviation from the target is listed.
      Figure 2.


Dynamic Analysis

Bolt/nut resultant forces can also be plotted for dynamic analysis, including transient, frequency, and random response analysis.
  1. Project Tree中,点击多载荷工况分析分支,打开分析工作台。
  2. Analysis Workbench 中,选择 紧固件合力
    The Bolt/nut forces dialog will open and display a table of resultant forces for tightened or not tightened bolts and nuts.
  3. Go to the desired tab to display either Bolts or Nuts.
    Note: If there are no bolts and/or nuts in the model, the respective tab(s) will not be available.
  4. Select a Force/Moment type from the Response dropdown.
  5. Optional: If plotting multiple forces, select the Show each plot in separate window checkbox to create multiple plots.
  6. Click Evaluate.
    A new dialog will open showing a graph of the chosen force. Use the radio buttons in this dialog to change the axis scale.
  7. To plot the partial response, do the following.
    1. From the plot dialog, pick a point on the curve to show the Modes contributions into response table.
    2. In the table, select rows to choose which modes to include in the partial response.
    3. Click Evaluate response.
      The plot in the dialog will update to show the partial response.
Note: In the Fastener resultant forces dialog for a random response solution, choose between PSD and RMS as the response type. This selection impacts the values displayed in the table. However, when the forces are plotted, the curve will, by default, show both the RMS and PSD curves for the selected forces in a single plot.

经过评估的力

说明哪些螺栓/螺母的力经过了评估。

螺栓

对于螺栓,会在位置 #1 的螺栓头部底座的横截面上评估以下力:
  • 轴向力
  • 剪切力
  • 弯曲运动
以及位置 #2 的相应螺母:
  • 轴向力
  • 螺纹剪切力
  • 弯曲运动(有关螺栓螺纹的质心)
3.


对于盲螺栓,第二组力是根据螺栓底部螺纹的质心计算的。

螺母

在螺母预紧力中(没有相应的螺栓),会在螺母螺纹中评估以下力:
  • 螺纹剪切力
  • 弯曲运动(有关螺栓螺纹的质心)

螺纹剪切力是沿螺母轴线作用在螺母螺纹上的总力。该力通过剪切力定义了螺纹的主要故障模式,并可用于确定螺纹尺寸。如果螺栓可以在安装孔中自由滑动并被螺母拧紧,则受力将与螺栓上的轴向力相同。
