ABSTRACT
This paper investigates the static behavior of bolted joints and the extent of its control in
the design of assembled structures. An analysis method is thus first developed highlighting
stresses distribution in the junction to dimension the functional performance area. A
description of the joint characteristics is presented. Numerical simulations, comparing the
complete and simplified finite element models relevance, are then carried out. The integration
of results of this analysis in the design of multiple bolted joints structures in finally
presented. Experiments on a testbed, where a viscoelastic material is introduced in joints
interfaces to enhance global damping, validate the approach developed.
