When components with stiffnesses $K_1$ and $K_2$ are considered to be in series, the effective stiffness $K_e$ is given by $\frac{1}{K_e} = \frac{1}{K_1} + \frac{1}{K_2}$. If $K_1 = K_2$, then $K_e = 0.5 K_1$.
A bolted joint is so designed that the stiffness of a threaded portion (K₁) is equal to the stiffness of unthreaded portion (K₂) of the bolt in a clamped region, then combined stiffness (effective) (Kₑ) of the bolt is given by - Question not attempted
