Design engineers routinely rely on bolted joints, yet most guidance focuses on axial stiffness—often overlooking moment (pitch) stiffness, which can dominate compliance in ...

To find the weak link of the structural stiffness is important to improve machine tool stiffness. However, how to overcome the static deformation with difficulty acquisition is a difficult problem in ...

Utilize advanced techniques to evaluate structures. Advanced analysis is necessary for structures that are complex, exhibit finite deformations, are loaded beyond their first yield point, or ...
