Abstract
The results are presented of a finite element analysis of bolted joints in fibre reinforced plastic. Although the finite element model uses only two- dimensional elements, through-thickness stresses being ignored, some cor respondence is demonstrated between the calculated strains and experimental data from tests on glass fibre reinforced epoxy resin.Keywords
