Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of vehicles, and in particular, to a method, device, medium, and equipment for analyzing the strength of a vehicle frame. Background Art

[0002] The vehicle frame transmits the forces of the cargo box and the cab to the front and rear suspensions, and is a main load-bearing component in the vehicle. Therefore, the strength performance of the vehicle frame is a very important indicator in the vehicle fatigue durability performance. However, due to the large number of connecting components of the vehicle frame and the complex connection methods, non-linear components such as leaf springs, buffer blocks, and limit structures make it difficult to perform CAE analysis on the strength of the vehicle frame.

[0003] In the related art, a method for CAE analysis of the strength of a vehicle frame is based on "load extraction + inertial release" for analysis. That is, using Adams software, a vehicle dynamics model is established, and through dynamic simulations of working conditions such as bumping, braking, turning, and torsion, the loads are extracted to obtain the forces on the external connection points of the vehicle frame with the suspension, body, etc.; then using Nastran software, a finite element model of the vehicle frame is established, and the extracted loads are applied to the external connection points of the vehicle frame, and the strength of the vehicle frame is calculated by the inertial release method.

[0004] However, this analysis method requires the establishment of a vehicle dynamics whole vehicle model to extract loads and perform inertial release finite element strength analysis on the vehicle frame. Therefore, it requires joint simulation analysis of "vehicle dynamics" and "finite element analysis", which requires more technical capabilities and increases the difficulty of vehicle frame strength analysis.

[0036] The following will describe in detail the specific implementation manners of the present disclosure with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific implementation manners described herein are only for the purpose of illustrating and explaining the present disclosure, and are not used to limit the present disclosure.

[0037] Figure 1 is a flowchart of a frame strength analysis method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As Figure 1 shown, the method includes the following steps S11 to S15.

[0038] In step S11, a non-linear unit for simulating the non-linear components of the frame is established.

[0039] The non-linear components of the frame include leaf springs, bump stops, limit components, etc. The following will describe in detail how to establish the non-linear units of each non-linear component.

[0040] In some embodiments, if the non-linear component is a leaf spring, then based on the leaf spring CAD digital model, according to the thickness of each leaf spring, sheet bodies or solid units can be established to simulate each leaf spring, and gap units for simulating the contact between the leaf springs are established between the leaf springs, where the sheet bodies or solid units and the gap units are used as the non-linear units for simulating the leaf spring. In addition, since the leaf spring also has stiffness requirements, therefore, the analysis model can be calibrated through the designed stiffness of the leaf spring, and the material parameters of the leaf spring can be adjusted to ensure that the stiffness of the leaf spring is consistent with the designed state, increasing the accuracy of the frame strength analysis. Figure 2 shows a schematic diagram of the leaf spring CAD digital model. Figure 3 shows a schematic diagram of the leaf spring finite element model. Figure 4 shows a partial enlarged view of the leaf spring finite element model.

[0041] In some embodiments, if the non-linear component is a bump stop, then a compression test can be first performed on the physical bump stop, and then, using the compression test of the physical bump stop, the force-displacement relationship curve data of the bump stop during the compression test (as Figure 5 shown) can be obtained, and the free travel distance of the bump stop in the suspension system (as Figure 6 shown) can be determined, and then the force-displacement relationship curve data and the free travel distance are used to establish a non-linear unit for simulating the bump stop. Figure 7 shows a schematic diagram of the finite element model of the bump stop. Figure 8 shows a schematic diagram of the force-displacement curve of the non-linear unit for simulating the bump stop established using the force-displacement relationship curve data and the free travel distance.

[0042] In some embodiments, if the non-linear component is a limit structure, then a non-linear unit for simulating the limit structure can be established according to the free travel distance of the limit structure and the stiffness of the connecting components near the limit structure.Figure 9 The CAD digital model schematic diagram of the limit structure is shown. Figure 10 The finite element model schematic diagram of the limit structure is shown. Figure 11 The force-displacement curve schematic diagram of the limit structure is shown.

[0043] In step S12, the front and rear suspension models of the vehicle frame are established using non-linear elements.

[0044] In some embodiments, after establishing the non-linear components of the non-linear components, the front and rear suspension models of the vehicle frame can be established using non-linear elements. That is, first, according to the axle housing size, the front and rear axles of the front and rear suspensions are simulated, and the finite element model of the leaf spring hanger is established. Then, the leaf spring, buffer block, and limit structure are connected to establish the front and rear suspension models. Among them, beam elements such as Nastran software can be used to simulate the front and rear axles. In addition, RBE2, rotational amplitude, etc. can be used to connect with the leaf spring, buffer block, and limit structure to establish the front and rear suspension models. Figure 12 The finite element model schematic diagram of the front suspension is shown. Figure 13 The finite element model schematic diagram of the rear suspension is shown.

[0045] In step S13, the finite element model of the vehicle frame and the finite element model of the cargo box floor assembly are established.

[0046] In step S14, the components connected to the vehicle frame and the cargo box floor assembly in the vehicle (such as the cab, engine, fuel tank, battery, condenser, radiator, cargo, etc.) are connected (for example, in the form of mass point units) to the finite element model of the vehicle frame and the finite element model of the cargo box floor assembly (for example, BUSH, RBE2, RBE3, etc. units can be used for connection), and the finite element model of the vehicle frame and the finite element model of the cargo box floor assembly are connected to the front and rear suspensions (for example, rotational amplitude can be used to connect the front and rear suspensions) to form a non-linear vehicle frame strength CAE analysis model. Figure 14 The non-linear vehicle frame strength CAE analysis model schematic diagram is shown.

[0047] In step S15, the non-linear vehicle frame strength CAE analysis model is solved under the preset non-linear analysis conditions to obtain the strength analysis results of the vehicle frame.

[0048] In some embodiments, the load set of the vehicle frame (such as constraints, gravity, bump acceleration, braking friction, turning centrifugal force, torsional forced displacement) can be defined and the preset non-linear analysis conditions (such as bumping, braking, turning, torsion, etc.) can be set according to the usage scenario, test field road surface information, design maximum centripetal acceleration, maximum tire adhesion coefficient, etc.

[0049] In some embodiments, when solving the non-linear frame strength CAE analysis model, a non-linear parameter card can be established, and the increment step size is set according to the model convergence situation in this non-linear parameter card; in addition, a control card can also be established to control the solution process. For example, the solution sequence (such as SOL = 106) and other control parameters can be set in the control card. Figure 15 is a schematic diagram of an exemplary non-linear parameter card. Figure 15 In it, NLPARM represents the control parameter used to define the iteration strategy during non-linear static analysis, mainly using NINC; ID is the number of the NPLPARM card; NINC is the number of increments during iteration in non-linear analysis, which can be an integer within 0 to 1000, and the default value is 10; DT is the time interval increment in creep analysis; KMETHOD is the stiffness control method, which can take AUTO, ITER or SEMI, and the default value is AUTO (the program automatically determines the most effective convergence method); KSTEP is the number of iterations when KMETHOD = ITER; MAXITER is the maximum number of iterations for each load increment; CONV is the convergence criterion identifier, which can take U, P or W, and their combinations, and the default value is PW; INTOUT is the output control flag, which can take YES, NO or ALL, and the default value is NO; YES means the results are output for each load increment, and NO means only the results of the last step are output; EPSU is the displacement error (U); EPSP is the load error (P); EPSW is the working error (W), and the default values are all 0.01; MAXDIV is the number of divergent iterations, and the default value is 3; MAXQN is the maximum number of Quasi-Newton correction vectors to be saved; MAXLS is the maximum number of searches for each step of iteration; FSTRESS is the effective stress part that restricts the increment of the material subroutine; LSTOL is the line search error; MAXBIS is the maximum number of allowable bi-directional load increments for each; MAXR is the maximum ratio of the arc length increment to the initial value; RTOLB is the maximum allowable increment angle for each iteration.

[0050] By adopting the above technical solution, since a non-linear unit for simulating non-linear components of the vehicle frame is established, a front and rear suspension model of the vehicle frame is established by using the non-linear unit, a finite element model of the vehicle frame and a finite element model of the cargo box floor assembly are established, components in the vehicle that are connected to the vehicle frame and the cargo box floor assembly are connected to the finite element model of the vehicle frame and the finite element model of the cargo box floor assembly in the form of a model, and the finite element model of the vehicle frame and the finite element model of the cargo box floor assembly are connected to the front and rear suspensions, and the non-linear vehicle frame strength CAE analysis model is solved under a preset non-linear analysis condition to obtain the strength analysis result of the vehicle frame. Therefore, the single-discipline CAE simulation analysis of the vehicle frame can be realized only through finite element modeling analysis, without multi-discipline co-simulation, and it can be completed only with finite element analysis knowledge, requiring less technical ability, reducing the difficulty of vehicle frame strength analysis. Moreover, since the influence of non-linear components such as leaf springs, buffer blocks, and limit structures on the vehicle frame strength CAE analysis is considered, the analysis result is more accurate.

[0051] Figure 16 is a schematic block diagram of a vehicle frame strength analysis device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As Figure 16 shown, the device includes: a first establishment unit 161 for establishing a non-linear unit for simulating non-linear components of the vehicle frame; a second establishment unit 162 for establishing a front and rear suspension model of the vehicle frame by using the non-linear unit; a third establishment unit 163 for establishing a finite element model of the vehicle frame and a finite element model of the cargo box floor assembly; a fourth establishment unit 164 for connecting components in the vehicle that are connected to the vehicle frame and the cargo box floor assembly to the finite element model of the vehicle frame and the finite element model of the cargo box floor assembly in the form of a model, and connecting the finite element model of the vehicle frame and the finite element model of the cargo box floor assembly to the front and rear suspensions to form a non-linear vehicle frame strength CAE analysis model; and an analysis unit 165 for solving the non-linear vehicle frame strength CAE analysis model under a preset non-linear analysis condition to obtain the strength analysis result of the vehicle frame.

[0052] By adopting the above technical solutions, since the nonlinear elements for simulating the nonlinear components of the vehicle frame are established, the front and rear suspension models of the vehicle frame are established by using the nonlinear elements, the finite element model of the vehicle frame and the finite element model of the cargo box floor assembly are established, the components connected to the vehicle frame and the cargo box floor assembly in the vehicle are connected to the finite element model of the vehicle frame and the finite element model of the cargo box floor assembly in the form of models, and the finite element model of the vehicle frame and the finite element model of the cargo box floor assembly are connected to the front and rear suspensions and the nonlinear vehicle frame strength CAE analysis model is solved under the preset nonlinear analysis conditions to obtain the strength analysis results of the vehicle frame, it is possible to achieve the single-discipline CAE simulation analysis of the vehicle frame only through finite element modeling analysis, without the need for multi-discipline co-simulation, and it can be completed only with finite element analysis knowledge, requiring less technical capabilities, reducing the difficulty of the vehicle frame strength analysis, and since the influence of nonlinear components such as leaf springs, bump stops, and limiting structures on the vehicle frame strength CAE analysis is considered, the analysis results are more accurate.
