Stability Analysis of an Assembly Process Using Simulation
Journal Title: Acta Technica Jaurinensis - Year 2020, Vol 13, Issue 1
Abstract
This paper deals with an assembly process of batteries with cell holder. The operation involves snap-fitting phenomenon, which is a mechanical stability problem. The structure of the cell holder is modelled with 2D flexible beam elements assuming large displacements. The stability of the equilibrium is investigated taking into consideration non-frictional and Coulomb frictional contacts. The goal of the analysis to determine the boundary point of the feed-motion from which the battery snaps-in to the final assembled position autonomously. The effect of the velocity of the battery feed-motion is also considered with energy approach.

Safety Considerations Regarding to the Shielding of Electric Fields During High Voltage Live-line Maintenance
Live-line maintenance (LLM) has several technical and economic benefits. Planned works can be executed without any consumer disturbance, while the network is energized. Strict regulations regarding to the working method,...
Investigation of Used Engine Oil Lubricating Performance Through Oil Analysis and Friction and Wear Measurements
Engine oil degradation during long-term engine operation is a well-researched topic, however, the effect of biofuels and synthetic compounds is not fully understood. In order to characterise novel fuel related&...
Characterisation of Diffuse and Local Necking of Aluminium Alloy Sheets using DIC Technique
This paper introduces a new method for the characterisation of the boundary of diffuse and local necking based on DIC measurements during tensile tests. A series of images illustrate the extension of diffuse necking and...
Determination of Load for Quasi-static Calculations of Railway Track Stress-strain State
When calculating the railway track stress-strain state one usually assumes that total strains are brought immediately from applied load and the process dynamics is taken into account by the respective levels of design fo...
