Stress Analysis of a Secondary-Bending Specimen

Abstract

This Note describes a two-dimensional finite-element elastic analysis of a uniaxially-loaded bolted secondary-bending specimen which was conducted to provide information relevant to a recent ARL fatigue testing program. Three different approaches were employed to model the bolt/plate interface and the results are compared with thermoelastic stress measurements.
