Abstract

The metal fastening method is the new technology to repair cracks in the casting material using specially designed reverse screws. In this study, we conduct the finite element analysis to analyze the pulling force characteristic of a reverse screw, the core component of the metal fastening method, with respect to the change of the applying torque, frictional coefficient and front screw angle. The simplified analysis model with single screw pitch is proposed for convergency of the non-linear contact analysis. As a results, the pulling force of a reverse screw increase in proportion to the applying torque but exponentially decrease according to frictional coefficient. And also we can find the optimum front screw angle with the largest pulling force is $20^{\circ}$.
