Abstract
Estimating bolt stress within high-temperature bolted connection systems is crucial for determining bolt preload and assessing bolt assembly integrity. This work proposes a theoretical model for estimating high-temperature bolt load under combined tension, bending, torque, and shear loads, considering the characteristics of bolt stress distribution and relaxation. To assess the model's accuracy, finite element analysis was employed to examine the impact of various creep parameters and load combinations on bolt stress relaxation. The results indicate that the introduction of bending moments, torque, and shear loads accelerates axial stress relaxation in bolts. Under a high-temperature load for 300,000 h, the stress relaxation predicted by the theoretical model aligns well with the results from finite element analysis.
期刊介绍：
Pressure vessel engineering technology is of importance in many branches of industry. This journal publishes the latest research results and related information on all its associated aspects, with particular emphasis on the structural integrity assessment, maintenance and life extension of pressurised process engineering plants.
The anticipated coverage of the International Journal of Pressure Vessels and Piping ranges from simple mass-produced pressure vessels to large custom-built vessels and tanks. Pressure vessels technology is a developing field, and contributions on the following topics will therefore be welcome:
• Pressure vessel engineering
• Structural integrity assessment
• Design methods
• Codes and standards
• Fabrication and welding
• Materials properties requirements
• Inspection and quality management
• Maintenance and life extension
• Ageing and environmental effects
• Life management
Of particular importance are papers covering aspects of significant practical application which could lead to major improvements in economy, reliability and useful life. While most accepted papers represent the results of original applied research, critical reviews of topical interest by world-leading experts will also appear from time to time.
International Journal of Pressure Vessels and Piping is indispensable reading for engineering professionals involved in the energy, petrochemicals, process plant, transport, aerospace and related industries; for manufacturers of pressure vessels and ancillary equipment; and for academics pursuing research in these areas.
