Bolt Looseness Detection Based on Piezoelectric Impedance Frequency Shift
In this paper, a piezoelectric impedance frequency shift method is developed to estimate the bolt preload for the detection of bolt looseness in engineering structures. An experimental device that allows the precision control of the axial preload force on a bolt is designed and fabricated. A univers...
