Congratulations to
Sinorock product engineer Ma Wuxiang for publishing the paper "Numerical Analysis of Nut and Anchor for Threaded Connection Based on ANSYS Workbench" in magazine Tunnel Construction.
According to the standard, the accessories should develop the same load as the anchor bar to guarantee system performance. In his research, he did dozens of simulation to verify the appropriate radial fit clearance of the anchor bar and nut to guarantee the support stability.
Based on the test results and the finite element analysis, his research provides some theoretical guidance for solving the SMEs' determination of matching conditions after a large number of trials.
