Abstract

This chapter focuses on the presentation of zero thickness elements as a method to discretize the contact plane of a bolted joint in the framework of the finite element method (FEM). A constitutive law based on a Jenkins element is used to describe the dry friction within the zero thickness elements. The harmonic balance method (HBM) is applied to calculate the dynamic response of the system in the frequency domain. In this chapter, a three-dimensional constitutive law based on Jenkins elements is used in order to simulate the dynamic behavior of a jointed friction resonator. The calculation is performed in the frequency domain utilizing the adaptive harmonic balance method (AHBM). This new, adaptive tool combines the advantages of classical HBM and multi-harmonic balance method (MHBM). Two different approaches for the application of the adaptive harmonic balance are shown with both delivering different results. The combination of the general modeling approach via zero thickness elements and the efficient computation using the AHBM brings out a powerful methodology for the calculation of the dynamics of jointed structures in the framework of the FEM.
