Mechanical connection of composite is critical due to its complicated meso-structure and failure mode, which has become a bottleneck on reliability of composite material and structure. Although many researches on composite bolted joints have been carried out, the theory and experiment on mechanical behavior of such a joint structure under dynamic loading were rarely reported. Here, we propose a novel predictive model for quasi-static and dynamic stiffness of composite bolted joint by introducing the strain rate dependent elastic modulus into the mass spring model. Combined with the composite laminate theory and Tsai-Hill theory, the present model was capable of predicting the strain rate dependent stiffness and strength of the composite bolted joint. Quasi-static and impact loading experiments were carried out by Zwick universal hydraulic testing machine and split Hopkinson tension bar, respectively. The stiffness and strength predicted by our model showed good accordance with the experiment data with errors below 12% under quasi-static loading and below 30% under impact loading. The results indicated that under impact loading, stiffness and strength of the composite bolted joint were significantly higher than their quasi-static counterparts, while the failure mode of the joint structure trended towards localization which was mainly bearing failure. Among various lay-up ratios studied, the optimal lay-up ratio for quasi-static and dynamic stiffness was 0:±45:90 = 3:1:1.
