Abstract
Self-loosening is one of the major failure reasons for bolted joints. Utilizing the finite element method, a 3-Dimension finite element model under dynamic shear loading is built to study the loosening of bolted fastener phenomenon. And the effect of increment step length, initial clamping force, amplitude of the shear load, thread tolerance, friction coefficients on the loosening process are studied.
