Abstract

Spot welding is automation of assembly process, without increasing the vehicle weight and economy, there is a fuel economy improvement of motor vehicles and to widely used in the automotive industry. But By irregular load from the road surface while at the vehicle is running, stress concentration occurs in the weld point, fatigue failure occurs frequently. Considering change of stiffness is the essential fatigue life of the evaluation spot weld. In this paper, by performing a linear static analysis was to understand the vulnerable part. Acquire to the fatigue properties of the spot weld, take the load history of the three levels in the time domain, was performed by setting as a condition of quasi-static fatigue analysis. and Fatigue life prediction method of the spot weld was by applying the method according to the fatigue damage accumulation and the conventional method was compared analyzed with the results shown.

점용접은 자동차 산업에서 많이 사용되어지는데 조립공정의 자동화로 인하여 경제성과 차체 중량을 높이지 않아 자동차 연비 개선효과가 있다. 그러나 차량 주행시 노면으로부터 불규칙적인 하중전달 및 진동으로 인하여 점 용접부에 응력집중이 발생하고 피로파괴가 종종 발생한다. 이에 대하여 강성변화를 고려한 점용접부의 피로수명 평가는 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 선형정적해석을 수행하여 취약부위를 파악하였다. 점용접부의 피로특성을 획득하였고, 시간영역에서 3단계의 하중이력을 도출하여, 준정적 피로해석에 조건으로 설정하여 수행하였다. 또한 점용접부에 대한 피로수명예측 방법은 기존 방법과 피로누적으로 인한 손상방법을 적용하여 나타낸 결과를 가지고 비교분석하였다.
