Abstract

This study examines fatigue failure in bolt-nut connections when a slight pitch difference is introduced. Three pitch variations (0 μm, 5 μm, and 15 μm) are analyzed using experimental and finite element methods. Results show that introducing a small pitch difference improves fatigue life.
