Overview of Pinned Joints
The Pin Connector in COSMOSWorks
Inherent Assumptions in a Pin Connector
Using Pin Connectors for Long Fasteners
Pin Joint Failure Analysis
Pinned Joints
Fastener loads are an important output of a Finite Element
model
Simple to calculate on simple problems
As problem grows in complexity, ability to estimate fastener loads
manually diminishes

4. The load that would cause failure in single shear is half the load for
double shear failure
K = AE/L
K = JG/L
A = Cross-Sectional Area
E = Material Youngs Mod

Presentation Summary
In this COSMOS Companion unit, we explored:
The use of Pin Connectors to represent generic cylindrical
fasteners
Inherent assumptions for a Pin Connector
A comparison of Pin Connector results with explicitly
modeled fasteners
Several test models for validation of Pin Connectors for your
specific problems

Conclusion
For more information
Contact your local reseller for more in-depth training or support on
using Connectors and modeling bolted joints
Review the on-line help for a more detailed description of the features
discussed
Attend, or better yet, present at a local COSMOS or SolidWorks user
group.
