Abstract: The fatigue assessment of studs is of great importance to the safe and reliable operation of fatigue vessels. JB/T 4732—1995(R2005) Appendix C has provided a fatigue anaylsis method for studs on the fatigue vessels. In this paper, finite element method was adopted to carry out a fatigue analysis on the fastening studs used in the flange of the fatigue equipment, which verified the rationality of the stud fatigue assessment method in the project. Meanwhile, the paper presented reasonable suggestions for the use of the fatigue equipment studs.

Key words: fatigue analysis, stud, finite element method/FEM
