Abstract:
Abstract – An approach to FEA simulation by using ANSYS WORKBENCH 14.0 is presented for vibration analysis of thin-walled beam shells typical of automotive structures, which are fabricated by joining sheet metal stampings along the two longitudinal edges with periodic spot welds.The specimens are subjected to free-free boundary conditions. The effect of the profile of a beam on vibration characteristics of thin-walled beams joined by spot welding is studied. A discrete models of three different profiles of beam was built in CAD software and Finite Element Analysis was carried out to find out the natural frequencies & mode shapes of the thin-walled beams.Resistance spot welding (RSW) method is used to join the two hat sections of the thin-walled beams to cut weight and lower the cost. A designer should have concentrate on the strength of component by introducing the changes in plate’s geometry that will reduce the vibration and noise of the structural models and increases the strength of the structures. In this work Finite element analysis was carried out to study the effect of profile of a beam section on the vibration characteristics of thin-walled beams joined by spot welding at free-free boundary conditions.
