Modeling of Bolts

ron.kunz over 7 years ago

Dear all,

I have a big assembly and want to model bolts in the complete assembly. What is the best and accurate way to model this.

Cbar analysis is accurate enough to analyse the bolt forces. Boltstress is of secundair interest.

Are there examples for these bolts?

In addition bar orientation for this CBAR property, how can this best be modeled?

Thanks in advance

Thanks Ken

MSC support has helped me with the issue I had. I couldn`t load BDF-files.

When I open your file then I see several subcases.

When I have the same bolts I can imagine I can use the same subcases but when I have different size of bolts then I have to specify for each bolt seperate subcases?

Thanks.
