Abstract

In order to analyze the vibration of a structure whose elements are connected with bolts, it is necessary to estimate the flexural rigidity of the bolted connections. One of the authors has proposed a calculation method for obtaining the flexural rigidity of bolted annular flange connections. For verification of the calculation method, bending tests have been performed. This paper deals with the resonant frequencies of some models for verification of the calculation method. FEM analysis, considering the flexural rigidity, and vibration tests are performed. Calculated resonant frequencies are in fairly good agreement with experimental ones.
