Mechanical fastening is a critical practice for assembling structural components, yet it introduces highlycomplex, localized stress fields near fastener and pin-loaded holes. Consequently, mechanically fastened joints remain frequent sources of structural failure in demanding aerospace and spacecraftapplications. This study presents a high-fidelity
