Experimental and Numerical Study of the Elastic SCF of Tubular Joints

Experimental and Numerical Study of the Elastic SCF of Tubular Joints

This paper provides data on stress concentration factors (SCFs) from experimental measurements on cruciform tubular joints of a chord and brace intersection under axial loading. High-fidelity finite element models were generated and validated against these measurements. Further, the statistical vari...
