Abstract
In the Part 2 paper, an optimisation study is carried out for the stress relief groove (SRG) in the pin of the snap-fit connector. A combined parameter is proposed to capture the relationship between the investigated geometric properties and the stress concentration factor at the SRG. It is established that the fillet radius could indeed be used to offset the drop in performance associated with increasing the SRG depth while improving the fatigue characteristics of the connector threads.
