Abstract

The demand for lightweight assemblies necessitates appropiate joining processes, such as cold forming processes enabling multi-material joints. The absence of universally applicable approaches for the design of mechanical joints makes their initial design iterative and time-consuming. Machine learning based approaches already partly solve this problem, but the impact of uncertainties, is usually neglected. Thus, this contribution proposes the concept of a novel computer-aided approach, supporting the initial design of clinch joints, taking into account uncertainties and varying conditions utilizing numerical simulations, data-driven methods and ontologies. This aims for a high-quality joint design demonstrated using an application scenario where a hat profile and a sheet are joined.
