Abstract

The invention discloses an aluminum body lightweight design method based on sensitivity and CAE analysis. The method comprises the following steps of 1, building an aluminum body finite element model; 2, analyzing modality and rigidity of an aluminum body; 3, building a sensitivity analysis optimization response model; 4, calculating a rigidity sensitivity coefficient, a modality sensitivity coefficient and a weight sensitivity coefficient of all components of the aluminum body; 5, according to a calculation result of the sensitivity coefficient, performing structural optimal design; 6, performing CAE analysis validation on the optimized aluminum body structure, judging whether the lightweight design objective is met or not; if yes, completing designing; if not, executing the step 5 again till the lightweight design objective is met. All structures capable of achieving the lightweight objective in the whole aluminum body structure can be analyzed, it can be efficiently verified that the optimized structure meets the requirement for modality and rigidity or not, and the efficient and reliable aluminum body lightweight design is achieved.

Description

[0001] 【Technical field】 [0002] The invention belongs to the technical field of vehicle design, in particular to a lightweight design method for an all-aluminum vehicle body based on sensitivity and CAE analysis. [0003] 【Background technique】 [0004] High rigidity and light weight have become the indicators pursued by today's automobile design. Relying solely on increasing component thickness to improve body-in-white bending and torsional stiffness is counter to this. Moreover, studies have shown that in the structural design of the body, increasing the thickness of the components does not necessarily improve the rigidity of the body in white. Therefore, based on the sensitivity analysis, this paper studies the contribution of each component to the stiffness of the BIW to determine the weak link of the BIW skeleton structure. And its structure is improved, so as to effectively improve the performance of the vehicle body. [0005] According to statistics, for every 10% r...
