Abstract

The materials used for the most previous work to investigate the characteristics of shrink-fitted joints are a commercially available mild steel. Shrink-fitted joints are produced using a much wider material range which can include nonferrous materials. The paper at hand is concerned with the effect of changing material type and the use of differeing material combinations on the joint holding load.
A theoretical approach is adopted to evaluate the holding load and stress induced between the two mating surfaces of the joint. Also, an experimental work is designed to investigate the effects of some parameters on the joint holding load i.e. the surface roughness and the interference value. The different materials used to produce the two members of the joints are, Mild Steel, Brass, Aluminium, and Bronze Phosporic Copper.
