Challenge

Week 6 - Creating connection for Rear door

Aim

To Create a connection on Rear door and apply different PIDs for different components.

Procedure

Import the model
In the given model assign PID to the components.
Bolt Connection is to be established wherever bolts are to be deployed.
Bolt connection created withMultinode RBE2 elements and joined by Two node RBE2 elements.

bolt connection also be created by Creating a 3D point at the Centre and convert it to bolt >> connection manager >> BOLT FE Rep type between the respective PI.

To Create a curve where seam weld is to be don
Curve >> Seam curve >> Convert option.
Connection Manager >> P1 and P2.
Set FE Rep Type >> OVERLAP-SHELL (for Parallel parts) and Y JOINT SHELL(for perpendicular parts).
Set appropriate search distance and root shells and realize the connection.

5. Create spot weld

6. Create Cbush Element around the Window Panes.

Create curves along the window surface
Curves >> Spot Lines using the convert option.
Open Connection Manager >> P1 and P2
Enter space between them.
Select FE Rep Type >> RBE-CBUSH-RBE3 >> search distance >> PBUSH ID >> realize the connection.

7. Creating door handle connection.

Multi Node RBE2 is to be created on each door handle hole.
Select the 2 master nodes >> create a Multi Node RBE3 with master node and the midpoint.
Assign Mass on master node at the midpoint >> CONM2(CONMi).

CONCLUSION :

The connection such as Bolts, Seam welds, spot welds and Cbush connection are made and successfully realized.
