Analyses of Bolted Joint for Shear Load with Stainless Steel Bushing and
Frictionless Shim-Flange Interface
Two cases of shim plates were investigated in the analyses:
1) Loose-fit shim: Assuming bolt hole in shim plate having large gap that the shim plate has never in contact with the stud.
2) Tight-fit shim: Assuming shim plate is bonded to the bushing and stud
A shear load of 15 kip was assumed in the analysis

Assumptions:• Except frictionless shim-flange contact surfaces, all compressive interfaces under preload are continuous (identical nodes) instead of bonded contacts (un-identical nodes) in order to avoid the contact penetrations that affect the joint stiffness.
• For stability, the stainless steel bushings were glued to the flange but have frictionless contact with the A286 stud. The hex nuts are glued to the stud without any tolerance.
• The spherical washer sets were modeled by equivalent short cylinders.
• The thickness of shim was formed by 1/7 of G-11CR insulation and 6/7 of 316 SS. The equivalent smear material property was assumed.
• For stability of shim plate, the shim was glued to the lower flange in the loose-fit shim case. In the tight-fit shim case, the shim plate was bonded to the middle bushing and the stud
• The lower flange stellalloy was fixed at the bottom surface. The upper flange stellalloy was coupled in the vertical direction on the top surface nodal points. Couples are applied at two side faces of the stellalloy to form a cyclically symmetric model.
• In the global coordinate system, y-axis is in the poloidal direction and z-axis is parallel to the stud axis.
• The 15 kips shear load was applied on the side surface of the upper flange stellalloy.
• All analyses used the room temperature material propertied as shown on next slide.

Material Properties
Shear Load - Deformed Shapes with Undeformed Edge ▪ Shim bonded to the stud will reduce the shear displacement of the bolt joint. ▪ With more realistic contact (no tension), the tight-fit shim will not be that effective.

Shear Load - von Mises Stress in Flange Stellalloy▪ High local stress at edge of hole is mainly due to the deformed shape of stud▪ The loose-fit shim produces much higher local stress

Shear Load – Stress Components in Flange Stellalloy▪ The Sy stress is caused by the bearing pressure from the stud▪ The Sz stress is due to the bending of stud. If the SS bushing is not bonded to the flange, the Sz will be smaller.

Discussions:1. The analyses intend to observe the structural behaviors of bolt joint using
stainless steel bushing when the shear load on the joint is greater than the frictional resistance induced by the bolt preload.
2. The tight-fit shim produced smaller displacement, however, the bonded contact of stud and shim is practically difficult to achieve in the design so the actual displacement may be between the two cases.
3. The lateral stiffness of the joint is dominated by the bending and shearing stiffness of the stud as well as the contact pressure on the bushing.
4. By replacing the G-11 bushing to the SS bushing did the shear displacement reduced from 0.0107-in to 0.0065-in
5. The total displacement after the sliding will be the elastic displacement shown above plus the existing gap due to installation and bolt preload.
6. For loose-fit shim, the tensile bending stress on the bolt is about 1.6 ksi for 1.0 kip of shear force.
7. Bearing stresses on the bushing are due to the bolt bending and the gap tolerance. The maximum bearing stress do not occurs at ends of bushings because the bolt bending was restrained by the nuts and washers.
8. The normal stress on the shim is negligible.
9. The results are from Run database BJ3_shear.db and BJ5_shear.db
