Stresses in press fitted wheel axle assemblies (TN-TS-6)

Last updated on 23 April 2013 10:11

Dimensional photo elastic models of the wheel/axle interface have been analysed and stress concentration factors have been calculated for single press models subjected to either a static or rotational bending moment. The effect of shear lag, due to rotation has also been demonstrated. Stress concentration factors have been calculated...
