Design and finite element analysis of interference press-fit aluminium nut

Construction of mechanical platforms requires a suitable method for assembling two physical components. One of the assembly methods that are being used for discrete hardware component is called fasteners. In the world of Technical Vocational Education Training (TVET), some projects require students...
