This work proposes a methodology that can be used to define a FEM simulation of the body welding process with the aim of evaluating compliant assembly deformations and spring-back, considering the effect of material plasticity, in order to improve the results of variational analysis methods, which so far have been based on a linear elastic material model. With reference to the automotive field, the simulation considers the effects of fixturing and resistance spot welding applied to sheet metal parts subjected to dimensional and geometrical tolerances.

Abstract
This work proposes a methodology that can be used to define a FEM simulation of the body welding process with the aim of evaluating compliant assembly deformations and spring-back, considering the effect of material plasticity, in order to improve the results of variational analysis methods, which so far have been based on a linear elastic material model. With reference to the automotive field, the simulation considers the effects of fixturing and resistance spot welding applied to sheet metal parts subjected to dimensional and geometrical tolerances.Pubblicazioni consigliate
