Analyzing Automotive Component: Nonlinear Analysis of Door Belt

Introduction:


In the realm of automotive components, the door belt plays a crucial role in ensuring the flexibility of door glass operation, preventing glass damage, and obstructing the ingress of dust and foreign particles. In this blog post, we delve into the functionality and analysis of the door belt, particularly focusing on its nonlinear characteristics.

Analysis Methodology:


To conduct a comprehensive analysis, we utilized the 3D CAD geometry of the door belt and employed pre-processing capabilities of midas NFX to define material properties, load conditions, and boundary constraints. Paying special attention to the anticipated rubber deformation, we optimized mesh quality using manual mesh refinement features.

Nonlinear Static Analysis:

 

Emulating real-world scenarios, we performed nonlinear static analysis to scrutinize the compressive load and deformation patterns induced when compressing the model with glass, akin to experimental conditions. This nonlinear static analysis encompasses geometric, material, and contact nonlinearities, ensuring a holistic evaluation.

Material Modeling:


In defining the rubber material, we leveraged a hyperelastic model along with Mooney-Rivilin constants. Should material property constants be unknown, experimental data can be used to derive these values. The NFX platform facilitates this process through the "Evaluate Experiment data" feature.

Enhancing Energy Storage System (ESS) Design: Considerations and Validation using midas NFX

Overview

 

In the process where renewable energy takes the spotlight, the need and interest in Energy Storage Systems (ESS) to secure electric energy from various sources persist. Achieving stable energy storage requires thorough verification during the ESS design phase, considering the environmental factors of its installation and potential issues arising during the setup. This pursuit of stability becomes paramount for ESS.

Kiturami-Bumyang - For engineers who want optimal design

What kind of work are you currently doing?

 

Hello . I am Park Han-bit, chief researcher at Kiturami-Bumyang Air Conditioning Research Institute .

Our company produces and sells air conditioners and refrigeration air conditioners.

I am working on product development, design and analysis of general air conditioning equipment.

In this process, I have been using NFX since 2017. It was used for the purpose of identifying the cause of the optimal design and when an issue occurred or checking expected problems in advance.

Nowadays, NFX is also used for the purpose of creating customer consulting materials .
