description abstractBolt-nut connectors play an important role in the safety and reliability of structural systems. Stress concentration due to unequal load distribution can cause fatigue failure in bolt-nut connectors. In this paper, the stress distribution in bolt-nut connectors is studied using an axisymmetric finite element model. Various geometric designs proposed in the literature were studied to determine the extent to which they reduce stress concentrations. Some well known modifications do significantly reduce the stress concentration factor (up to 85%) while other changes produce much more modest changes. The design modifications include things such as grooves and steps on the bolt and nut, and reducing the shank diameter of the bolt. All of the changes also result in a reduction in weight.
