Forced Vibration Measurements of Clinched Joints

Abstract:

As a result of the trend towards lightweight construction in manufacturing, there has been a significant increase in the use of clinched joints in engineering structures and components. Mechanical structures assembled by clinching are expected to possess a high damping capacity. The aim of this paper is to provide an experimental measurement technique for the investigation of the forced vibration behavior of clinched joints. The dynamic test software and the data acquisition hardware were used in the experimental measurement of the dynamic response of the clinched joints. The frequency response functions of the clinched joints of different clinching point number were measured and compared.
