Abstract:The mechanical connection was the main connection means of composite structures. In this paper, a three-dimensional finite element model of progressive failure was established by business software ABAQUS. The model considered the contact between bolt and hole, progressive damage, large deformation theory, and nonlinear shear stress/strain relations. HASHIN failure criterion and TAN material property degradation criterion were adopted to study the progressive failure process of mechanical connection structure, … Show more
