two main types of bolted joint designs: tension joints and shear joints. The selection of the components in a threaded joint is a complex process. Careful...

parts. While a shear joint provides alignment for mating parts, it often requires additional fixtures to support the top part of the joint from deflecting...

6 (to change force from tensile to shear) = 24 tonne-force When working with a riveted or tensioned bolted joint, the strength comes from friction between...

axial force component into a tensile force and shear force normal and parallel to the scarf joint. Shear strength is assumed to be equal to σ/2. The following...

the two connected elements rather than bolt shear or bolt bearing to join two structural elements. Shear (and tension) loads can be transferred between...

typically be in a state of shear, not tensile. Because of this, it is very important to understand the shear loading of a joint in relation to its green...

processes. Tensile fracturing results in joints. Shear fractures are the first initial breaks resulting from shear forces exceeding the cohesive strength...

In structural engineering, a shear wall is a two-dimensional vertical element of a system that is designed to resist in-plane lateral forces, typically...

Alan Shearer CBE DL (born 13 August 1970) is an English football pundit and former professional player who played as a striker. Widely regarded as one...

Sheep shearing is the process by which the woollen fleece of a sheep is cut off. The person who removes the sheep's wool is called a shearer. Typically...

A shear pin is a mechanical detail designed to allow a specific outcome to occur once a predetermined force is applied. It can either function as a safeguard...

string was caught at a tool joint in the upper annular BOP valve), jamming the shears and leaving the drill string shear actuator unable to deliver enough...

Shear strength is a term used in soil mechanics to describe the magnitude of the shear stress that a soil can sustain. The shear resistance of soil is...

A constant-velocity joint (also called a CV joint) is a mechanical coupling which allows the shafts to rotate freely (without an appreciable increase...

employ a brass key. When excessive torque is applied to the joint, the steel edges shear the brass key into two pieces, leaving the pulley spinning loosely...

weeks dry shearing three broadcloths. A shearing machine is a machine equipped with shearing cylinder, ledger blade, fluff exhaust, and joint seam sensors...

Charcot joint (often Charcot foot) after the first to describe it, Jean-Martin Charcot, refers to progressive degeneration of a weight-bearing joint, a process...
