Abstract

The current international standards of taper connections of ratio 7/24 have several dimensional specifications, even for the same size of such tapers. The present work investigates theoretically, by means of the Finite Element Analysis, the basic static characteristics of such connection in form of its stiffness, shear and compression stresses that caused by external bending load. Also, it deduces the interrelation between the main dimensions of such a taper connection.
