Design Optimization of A Riveted Joint Used in Back Plate of A Pendulum Absorber Assembly
Abstract: Riveted joints are widely used for fastening sheet metal components. Cylindrical rivets are generally preferred but due to space constraints in some cases, other geometries are being explored. In this work, a practical case of a rectangular riveted assembly for back plate of pendulum absorber assembly commonly used in modern vehicles for damping secondary vibrations is considered and an iterative simulation study for design optimization has been conducted using finite …
