Abstract
Carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) is frequently utilized as a bolted joint material in aircraft applications because of its high specific strength and specific modulus. Therefore, the performance of CFRP under -50° is significant. Here, we discuss the specimens of two bolted connections (single-nailed and double-nailed) used for static load tensile and tensile fatigue tests. We obtained the failure curves and fatigue life relationships of the specimens with two different connection methods at different tightening torques (2 N/m, 4 N/m, and 6 N/m) and low room temperatures. Our analysis reveals the effect of the bolt tightening torque and temperature on the structural mechanical properties of a CFRP bolted joint. It provides a data reference for researchers to design a composite bolted joint structure in an airplane flight environment.
