Abstract:An implicit, elastoplastic, finite element method (FEM) with multi-body treatment function was applied to accurately analyze the real-world shaft clinching of a duplex-pair tapered roller (DPTR) wheel-bearing unit (WBU) under minimal assumptions during modeling. The inner races were viewed as elastoplastically deformable and were fitted to the hub shaft before clinching by imposing a thermal load reflecting the mechanical load of press-fitting. The forming roller (i.e., the power source) was considered to be f… Show more
