How can you best simulate the dynamics response of a structure with a large number of screws or bolted connections? It is often prohibitively expensive to represent all the hardware, and at the highest level of fidelity, both in terms of set-up time, and also for the computational time. This article lays out a strategy for getting the best answer you can in the fewest compute iterations, then we delve into the tactics of accounting for the effect of each fastener.
