Why is it important?
The work presents a method of safe-life fatigue analysis for preloaded bolted joints. Wohler plots, or S-N curves, for a range of bolt grades are included.
Perspectives
The paper presents Wholer Plots / S-N Curves for Bolt Classes / Grades 8.8, 9.8, 10.9 and 12.9 and also includes estimates of residual stresses of bolt threads produced by thread rolling.
