  1. 16. Design for Producibility in Fabricated Aerospace Components - A framework for predicting and controlling geometrical variation and weld quality defects during multidisciplinary design

    Author : Julia Madrid; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Quality Assurance; Welding; Aerospace; Design for Producibility; Welding simulation; Variation Management; Design for Manufacturing; robust design;

    Abstract : In the aerospace industry, weight reduction has been one of the key factors in making aircraft more fuel efficient in order to satisfy environmental demands and increase competitiveness. One strategy adopted by aircraft component suppliers to reduce weight has been fabrication, in which small cast or forged parts are welded together into a final shape. READ MORE

  2. 17. FEM Modelling of Micro-galvanic Corrosion in Al Alloys Induced by Intermetallic Particles : Exploration of Chemical and Geometrical Effects

    Author : Litao Yin; Jinshan Pan; Christopher Leygraf; Ying Jin; Herman Terryn; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Finite Element Method FEM ; Modelling; Micro-galvanic corrosion; Al alloy; corrosion product deposition; chemical factors; steric hindrance effect; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Localized corrosion, such as pitting, crevice corrosion or galvanic corrosion, is a long-standing phenomenon that can greatly limit the life of metallic materials. For decades experimental methods have been used to try to understand the underlying physical, chemical and electrochemical processes that control localized corrosion in order to find effective protection methods against its propagation.

  3. 18. Visual Robustness: Effects of Variation on Product Appearance and Perceived Quality

    Author : Karin Nordvall; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; craftsmanship; robust design; perceived quality; optical quality; visual quality appearance; visual robustness; geometrical variation and non-nominal visualization; industrial design;

    Abstract : For consumer products where the product appearance plays an important role in meeting expectations, the visible effects of manufacturing variation can have a negative influence on the product experience. A prerequisite in mass production is that no manufactured units are exactly identical, as a result of variation. READ MORE

  4. 19. Towards improvement of geometrical quality for manual assembly parts

    Author : Mikael Rosenqvist; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; calculation model; geometry system; Interview; assessment; action cost.; assembly; error; ergonomics; assembly complexity; design for assembly; robust design; complexity; manual assembly; sustainable; tolerance analysis and design; CAT; quality; failure; action cost; assembly ergonomics;

    Abstract : Geometrical variation affects all mass-produced products. This variation will lead to deviations from the nominal design of the product both in terms of aesthetical and functional properties. Geometrical variation originates either from the manufacturing of the parts or from the assembly process.

  5. 20. Computational Methods for Deformable 1D Objects in Virtual Product Realization

    Author : Tomas Hermansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; assembly verification; variation simulation; robust design; path planning; Cosserat rod theory; deformable 1D objects; automatic routing;

    Abstract : In industry today, virtual design tools are used in the realization of a new product. As changes in the design and planning concepts are extremely costly in the later verification and production phases, much can be gained if a product design can be optimized and verified with respect to the assembly process with simulation tools as early as possible.
