| Abstract Scope |
To pursue better quality, there is a strong need for efficient and robust non-destructive testing methods for joining processes. Wolf et al. Production Engineering, 2019] have proposed a new approach to detect loose bolted joints using acoustic waves. This method measures the dissipation of energy by recording the propagated waves on the surfaces of the joining partners next to the joint. The authors showed a link between the torque moments applied to the bolt and the ability of the joint to transfer acoustic energy using both simulations and experiments.
In this article, we numerically investigate the ability to detect variation of some process parameters of the clinching process. To this extent, results of FEM calculation of the joining process are then used to simulate the control method. By varying parameters of the clinching model, their influence on the transmission of energy within the joint is studied. |
