3D Riveting Process Simulation of Laminated Composites
Abstract:
Laminated composite plates have lower interlaminar strength making it difficult to apply interference-fit rivet joining. In this paper, a three-dimensional finite element model has been developed in order to simulate the riveting process on composite plates. The finite element model is based on continuum elements and accounts for some important mechanisms involved in a whole riveting process. The stresses around the rivet hole and the deformed shapes of the rivet are presented together with the effects of the interference fit and the geometry of the washer when the rivet joints are subjected to the compressive load. The numerical results show the applicability of an interference-fit riveting in composite laminates.
