Abstract
According to an aspect, a system includes a memory system configured to store a plurality of instructions and a processing system. The processing system is configured to communicate with the memory system and execute the instructions that result in determining an initial torque applied to a component stack, determining an assembly torque and an angle of turn applied to the component stack after the initial torque is applied, and determining a friction value associated with the component stack. Execution of the instructions further result in determining a stack load of the component stack based on the friction value, the assembly torque, and the angle of turn, and outputting an indicator of the stack load.
