Rigidity of Fillet Welds Formula Elements

Variables
Rigidity of Fillet Weld
Rigidity of Fillet Weld is the resistance offered by a given fillet weld to any angular distortion.
Symbol: R
Measurement: Torsion ConstantUnit: Nm/rad
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Young's Modulus
Young's Modulus is a mechanical property of linear elastic solid substances. It describes the relationship between longitudinal stress and longitudinal strain.
Symbol: E
Measurement: Stiffness ConstantUnit: N/m
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Plate Thickness in Butt Joint
Plate Thickness in Butt Joint is the distance through the bearing plate that are welded face to face at the thinner end.
Symbol: ptb
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Poisson's Ratio
Poisson's Ratio is defined as the ratio of the lateral to axial strain. For many metals and alloys, values of Poisson’s ratio range between 0.1 and 0.5.
Symbol: 𝛎
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
