Title: Control Dewar and VLPC Bayonet Can Platform Connection Design and Analysis

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/1032129· OSTI ID:1032129

The four connections for the control dewar and VLPC bayonet can platform are designed, using finite element analysis, to carry all dead weight and live loads. Based on the loads applied to the platform, two 1 inch thick plates and two 3/4 inch thick brackets made of ASTM A572-Grade 42 are required. The 1 inch thick plate requires a 3/8 inch thick intermediate steel material, between the 8-inch x 4-inch x 1/4-inch boom and the plate, for load reinforcement as well as weld area reinforcement. Both the plates and the brackets require 3/4 inch steel bolt connections.
