“…Previous studies on the structure with a bolted joint are mostly dedicated to extraction of stiffness for the joint region and estimation of contact stress through a detailed model for a bolted joint using the FEM [1][2][3][4][5]. Yorgun et al [6] investigated the behavior of a double channel beam-to-column connection subjected to in plane bending moment and shear based on tests and finite element software ANSYS. Maggi et al [7] also demonstrated using the same software how variations of geometric characteristics in bolted end plate could change the connection behavior.…”

In this work, in order to investigate a modeling technique of the structure with bolted joints, four kinds of finite element models are introduced; a solid bolt model, a coupled bolt model, a spider bolt model, and a no-bolt model. All the proposed models take into account pretension effect and contact behavior between flanges to be joined. Among these models, the solid bolt model, which is modeled by using 3D solid elements and surface-to-surface contact elements between head/ nut and the flange interfaces, provides the best accurate responses compared with the experimental results. In addition, the coupled bolt model, which couples degree of freedom between the head/nut and the flange, shows the best effectiveness and usefulness in view of computational time and memory usage. Finally, the bolt model proposed in this study is adopted for a structural analysis of a large marine diesel engine consisting of several parts which are connected by long stay bolts.

“…Like the previous investigations by Yorgun and Rahman et al [10,6], the current study also uses the commercial software ANSYS in order to analyze the buckling and also the postbuckling behaviour of steel columns precisely and quantitatively. The study is, however, based on stress-strain curves (in tension as well as compression) of the column material obtained from rigorous tests.…”

“…Many researches had been carried out using finite element numerical method to stimulate and investigate steel connection behaviour (Bahaari and Sherbourne, 1996;Choi and Chung, 1996;Bursi and Jaspart, 1998;Yorgun et al, 2004). Bahaari and Sherbourne (1996) used an inelastic finite elements modelling to evaluate analytically the stiffness and strength characteristics of steel bolted end-plate connections.…”

“…The study established a legitimate methodology for finite element analysis and proper three-dimensional finite element models using ABAQUS software for extended end-plate connections, which also validated by 16 isolated extended end-plate connections with good agreement. Yorgun et al (2004) developed a series of finite element models for double channel beam-to-column connections subjected to in-plane bending moment and shear. The simulation was carried out using ANSYS 5.5.1 version and the results are compared with the experimental tests conducted at the Istanbul Technical University.…”

Finite element analysis of flush end-plate connections connected to column web

Eurocode 3: Part 1.8 (2005b) does not cover the empirical design for flush end-plate connections connected to column web. Thus, experimental works need to be performed to investigate the behaviour of the minor axis end-plate bolted connection. However, the experimental tests are expensive, tedious and time consuming to be conducted. Alternatively, finite element modelling and analysis can be adopted to predict the behaviour of the connection accurately. Five specimens of flush end-plate connections connected to column web with variable parameters have been tested and the results are compared with finite element analysis. Finite element models with enhanced strain solid and contact joint elements are used to stimulate the connection behaviour. The objective of this paper is to compare and validate the accuracy and reliability of the finite element model by correlating moment rotation (M-Φ) curves between the finite element model and experimental tests. The comparison shows a reasonable agreement between the predicted results from FEA and the experimental tests.
