Optical Monitoring and Control of Bolt Tightening
Dr. Sayed Nassar, AdvisorAidong Meng
Objectives and Methodology• Develop optical monitoring and control method for bolt tightening• Use 3-D Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry technique • Establish Torque-Tension-Deformation correlation • Determine a proper clamp load and tightening strategy
