The wind energy sector is constantly looking for improving the efficiency of their facilities,
including on offshore locations. Part of that strategy is the demand for increasingly larger …

Although anaerobic adhesives are extensively used in addition to mechanical tightening in
flanged couplings, interference fits, and threaded connections, their constitutive behaviour …

Planetary gearboxes generally consist of a ring gear, or gear body, connected with the input
and output flanges by means of several screws, equally spaced along the diameter. The ring …

Electromagnetically assisted adhesive joining (EAAJ) is a novel hybrid joining technique
combining the benefits of electromagnetic crim** and adhesive joining. This paper …

To prevent the preload loss, threadlockers are frequently used in threaded connections (eg
to avoid self-loosening). Threadlockers are generally anaerobic adhesives and are …

Threaded joints are widely used in the automotive industry, where threadlockers can be
applied to prevent self-loosening and to possibly achieve a friction drop upon tightening …

This scientific study aims to validate the applicability of a micromechanical model for
predicting the static shear strength of hybrid interfaces that are pressure-reinforced and …

The paper deals with the experimental measurement of the shear strength in hybrid
interfaces, press fitted and bonded with anaerobic adhesives. The aim is to validate and …

Previous research led to the conclusion that the Engagement Ratio (ie the coupling length
over the coupling diameter, ER) does not significantly affect the shear strength of an …

The aim of this research is to study the effect of the interference level and of the coupling
procedure on the shear strength of Loctite 648 anaerobic adhesive. The tests involved shaft …
