Dilation Effect

Torque as a tightening method is a simple technique that can be used to tighten a bolt to a given pre-load. Therefore, it is important to theoretically derive an accurate torque vs tension relationship for threaded fasteners as this would enable the industry to achieve a reliable pre-load. Various attempts were made to develop a complete theoretical relationship between torque and tension. Due to the thread angle there exists a nut dilation force causing the nut to expand radially out wards. This effect is more prominent in nuts with smaller height (Style 0 hex nut, refer ISO 4035 1 ). This nut dilation force creates a combined frictional effect with the drive torque thus affecting the torque tension relationship. This paper proposes a novel 3D formulation for torque tension relationship taking into consideration the nut dilation effect. This paper further develops new formulae for tightening and loosening torque, retaining torque, tension vs nut rotational angle relationship as well as formula for nut dilation force for both tightening and loosening.

This study provides a theoretical and experimental investigation of the effect of the thread and bearing friction coefficients on the self-loosening of threaded fasteners that are subjected to cyclic transverse loads. The friction coefficients are varied by using different types of coating and lubrication. A phosphate and oil coating and an olefin and molydisulfide solid film lubricant are used on the bolts tested. A mathematical model is developed to evaluate the self-loosening behavior in threaded fasteners when subjected to cyclic transverse loads. An experimental procedure and test setup are proposed in order to collect real-time data on the loosening rate (rate of clamp load loss per cycle) as well as the rotational angle of the bolt head during its gradual loosening. The experimental values of the friction coefficients are used in the mathematical model to monitor their effect on the theoretical results for the loosening rate. Experimentally, the friction coefficients are modified by changing the coating or the lubrication applied to the fasteners. The theoretical and experimental results are presented and discussed.

Loosening Rate

This study provides an experimental and theoretical investigation of the effect of the bearing friction coefficient and the thread friction on the self-loosening of threaded fasteners that are subjected to cyclic transverse service loads. Coating and lubrication affect the thread and the underhead friction of the fastener, which affects the loosening rate when it is subjected to transverse loads. A mathematical model was developed to evaluate the self-loosening behavior in threaded fasteners when subjected to cyclic transverse loads. An experimental procedure and test set up are designed in order to collect real-time data on the rate of preload loss per cycle as well as the rotational angle of the bolt head during its gradual loosening. The values of the coefficients of friction under the bolt head and between the threads were changed in the mathematical model to monitor their effect on the loosening rate. Experimentally, the friction coefficients are modified by changing the coating or the lubrication applied to the fasteners. One coating and one solid film lubricant are used, namely, phosphate and oil coating and Olefin and Molydisulfide lubricated bolts. The theoretical and experimental results are presented and discussed.

Objective: To assess the success of BMG urethroplasty in long segment anterior urethral stricture. Method: From January 2014 to December 2015, twenty male patients with long anterior segment urethral stricture were managed by BMG urethroplasty. After voiding trial they were followed up at 3 month with Uroflowmetry, RGU & MCU and PVR measurement by USG. Patients were further followed up with Uroflowmetry and PVR at 6 months interval.Successful outcome was defined as normal voiding with a maximum flow rate >15ml /sec and PVR<50 ml with consideration of maximum one attempt of OIU after catheter removal. Results: Mean stricture length was 5.2 cm (range 3-9 cm) and mean follow-up was 15.55 months (range 6-23 months). Only two patients developed stricture at proximal anastomotic site during follow-up. One of them voided normally after single attempt of OIU. Other one required second attempt of OIU and was considered as failure (5%). Conclusion: BMG urethroplasty is a simple technique with good surgical outcome. Bangladesh Journal of Urology, Vol. 19, No. 2, July 2016 p.64-68
