Forming load accuracy


A detailed view of the axisymmetric FE analysis of the riveting process is presented above.
The process consisted of two 2024-T3 Al alloy sheets which had to be joined using a 2117-T4 Al alloy countersunk type rivet. The results obtained using AFDEX are compared with experiments as well as a commercial FE solver.
