Modelling process of electrical contact rivet through finite element simulation

Gayral, Eric; Nouri, Hassan; Amali, Ramin

Abstract

Reliability of the electrical contact riveting process is studied with the aid of non-linear finite element analysis modelling and experimental techniques. The modelling is performed within ALGOR platform and its validity is assessed through a purpose built riveting test rig. A close correlation is observed between the results of FE model and the test rig. Copyright © 2009, Inderscience Publishers.
