Abstract
Sufficient preload in a bolted joint is key to ensuring the reliability of mechanical products; however, under vibration, preload decrease often occurs. The mechanism of preload decrease has not yet been fully clarified. In this study, finite element models of bolted joints with and without helix angles were constructed to study the mechanism of preload decrease under transversal vibration. Based on the finite element analysis results, a new cause of preload decrease, denoted as stress release and redistribution, was discovered and explained in detail. The mechanism of preload decrease caused by stress release and redistribution, cyclic plasticity deformation and rotation loosening is studied systematically, and the typical mode of preload decrease is proposed. Based on the preload decrease curve, more comprehensive evaluation criteria are established, quantified using three parameters to represent the locking behavior of bolted joints. Finally, experiments were conducted to verify the reliability of the preload decrease results.
