In order to ensure the structural durability of the vehicle, a large number of fatigue tests will be carried out on the vehicle components during the vehicle development process. The tests on structural durability mainly include road tests in the proving ground and indoor bench tests.

[0004] The key to structural durability performance analysis lies in the true load spectrum between components.

[0069] Embodiment 1

[0070] See also Figure 1 , which shows a method for compiling a load spectrum in a first embodiment of the present invention, and is applied to a stabilizer bar of a vehicle to be tested. The method for compiling a load spectrum specifically includes steps S101 to S106:

[0071] S101, obtaining stress cloud diagrams of a finite element model of the stabilizer bar under various working conditions, and determining the position of a strain measuring point of the stabilizer bar according to hot spot positions in the stress cloud diagram and position information of the stabilizer bar when failure occurs in a road test;

[0072] In the specific implementation, a finite element model of the stabilizer bar of the vehicle to be tested is established. When establishing the finite element model, the stabilizer bar can be first scanned as a whole, and the geometric model of the stabilizer bar can be pre-constructed based on the material of the stabilizer bar and the connection relationship between the stabilizer bar and other components as input conditions. The model is processed using finite element processing software to obtain the corresponding finite element model. It should also be added that the pre-processing software for modeling can use Hypermesh or ANSA for modeling.

[0073] It can be understood that in other embodiments, the finite element model can also be established by directly scanning the stabilizer bar or importing data through the finite element model.

[0074] After establishing the finite element model of the stabilizer bar, it is combined with the finite element (strength) analysis under typical working conditions to obtain the stress cloud map under the corresponding working conditions. Among them, the stabilizer bar is mainly subjected to torsion. The typical working condition generally refers to the forced displacement applied at both ends. First, the finite element analysis model is established, and then the finite element analysis is performed to obtain the stress distribution cloud map of the stabilizer bar, in which the stress concentration position is the hot spot.

[0075] The fracture position information of the stabilizer bar during the road test, i.e., the position information when the stabilizer bar fails during the road test, is obtained, and compared with the stress cloud map under the corresponding working condition obtained above, and the strain test area of ​​the stabilizer bar, i.e., the strain measurement point position, is determined according to the hot spot position in the stress cloud map. This step compares the stress concentration position with the road test failure position to determine the stress measurement point position, with the purpose of finding the position with high stress for bench calibration and road load spectrum collection.

[0076] See also Figure 2 In other embodiments, before step S102, the method further includes steps S201 to S202:

[0077] S201, determining the type of strain gauge at the strain measuring point position according to the type of load on the stabilizer bar;

[0078] S202: Install corresponding strain gauges at the strain measuring point according to the strain gauge type.

[0079] In the specific implementation, the load type of the load force on the stabilizer bar is analyzed, and then the type of strain gauge that needs to be installed at the strain measurement point is determined. Among them, strain gauges are mainly divided into single-piece, strain rosette and shear strain gauges, etc., to test different types of strain. It is necessary to determine whether the load on the part is compression or torsion. The stabilizer bar mainly bears torsional shear force. In this embodiment, a shear strain gauge is used.

[0080] The strain gauge of the strain gauge type obtained above is installed at the strain measuring point to facilitate the subsequent bench calibration test.

[0081] S102, performing component bench calibration on the stabilizer bar to obtain a corresponding calibration curve, and performing linearity verification on the calibration curve;

[0082] For further information, see Figure 3 In step S102, the stabilizer bar is calibrated on a component bench to obtain a corresponding calibration curve, which includes steps S1021 to S1022:

[0083] S1021, fixing a stabilizing bar equipped with a strain gauge on a test bench, applying a load to the stabilizing bar equipped with the strain gauge by using an actuator cylinder at a preset time, and collecting a displacement signal of the actuator cylinder and a strain signal on the stabilizing bar equipped with the strain gauge according to a preset number of times;

[0084] S1022: Perform linear fitting on the collected multiple displacement signals and the strain signals to obtain a corresponding calibration curve.

[0085] In specific implementation, the purpose of bench calibration is to obtain the linear relationship between the bench actuator and the part strain (y=kx+b). The test method is similar to the static bench calibration. First, the strain gauge obtained above is pasted on the stabilizer bar, and the stabilizer bar with the strain gauge installed is fixed on the test bench. The actuator is used to apply a load to the stabilizer bar for a certain period of time (in this embodiment, it is applied from position 0 to position 40mm in 5s), and the displacement signal (X) of the actuator and the strain signal (Y) on the stabilizer bar are collected at the same time. Generally, the data is collected three times, and the collected measurement points are linearly fitted respectively. When the fitting linearity is good, the three changes of k are not greater than 0.01, and the changes of b are not greater than 0.01, then the linear fitting is OK, and the dynamic calibration curve is obtained.

[0086] S103, if the linearity verification of the calibration curve passes, the stabilizer bar and the wheel center acceleration sensor are installed on the vehicle to be tested to perform a road test, and a first strain load spectrum of the strain measuring point position and a wheel center acceleration load spectrum of the vehicle to be tested are collected according to a road test specification of the road test;

[0087] In a specific implementation, if the linearity verification of the above-mentioned calibration curve is passed, the stabilizer bar and the wheel center acceleration sensor are installed on the vehicle to be tested for a road test, and the first strain load spectrum of the strain measuring point position and the wheel center acceleration load spectrum of the vehicle to be tested are collected according to the road test specifications of the road test.

[0088] S104, performing a multi-body dynamics analysis on the vehicle to be tested to obtain a hard point load spectrum of the stabilizer bar, and obtaining a second strain load spectrum at the strain measuring point position according to a virtual test of the stabilizer bar;

[0089] In the specific implementation, a corresponding multi-body dynamics model is established according to the whole vehicle information of the vehicle to be tested, and a multi-body dynamics analysis is performed on the multi-body dynamics model, and the hard point load spectrum of the stabilizer bar installed on the vehicle to be tested (the load spectrum of the stabilizer bar connection point) is extracted, a virtual test is performed on the stabilizer bar, and the second strain load spectrum of the above-mentioned strain measurement point position is extracted.

[0090] It can be understood that multi-body dynamics is the study of the motion laws of multi-body systems (generally composed of several flexible and rigid objects connected to each other), and is usually modeled and analyzed using ADAMS.

[0091] S105, evaluating the damage strength of the stabilizer bar according to the first strain load spectrum and the wheel center acceleration load spectrum and the hard point load spectrum and the second strain load spectrum, and determining whether the damage strength evaluated by the first strain load spectrum and the wheel center acceleration load spectrum is consistent with the damage strength evaluated by the hard point load spectrum and the second strain load spectrum;

[0092] See also Figure 4 , the step S105 specifically includes steps S1051 to S1053:

[0093] S1051, preprocessing the first strain load spectrum and the wheel center acceleration load spectrum to remove invalid signals in the first strain load spectrum and the wheel center acceleration load spectrum;

[0094] S1052, simplifying the preprocessed first strain load spectrum and wheel center acceleration load spectrum into a plurality of load cycles consisting of load amplitudes and load means;

[0095] S1053: Calculate the first strain load spectrum and the wheel center acceleration load spectrum using the load cycle to evaluate the damage strength of the stabilizer bar.

[0096] In specific implementation, the first strain load spectrum and the wheel center acceleration load spectrum are preprocessed, that is, the load spectrum is filtered and the connecting road surface signals between the deburring and shearing characteristic road surfaces are removed, in order to delete invalid signals in the load spectrum.

[0097] The pre-processed first strain load spectrum and wheel center acceleration load spectrum are simplified into a number of load cycles consisting of load amplitudes and averages, the purpose of which is to calculate fatigue life and compile load spectra. In this application, the rain flow statistics method is adopted, and its counting principle is applicable to the stress-strain behavior of metal parts under cyclic load conditions (such as Figure 5 As shown in the figure, using this method, you first need to draw the time axis of the load spectrum downward, imagining it as a series of pagoda-shaped roofs. The rain flow starts to flow down from the inside (of the roof) and can continue to flow downward. The load cycle is determined based on the trajectory of the rain flow.

[0098] The implementation of rainflow counting in the program is divided into two steps: data compression and cycle number extraction:

[0099] (1) Data compression

[0100] The peak and trough value detection is used to compress the data and delete invalid payloads. Then the original payload data is counted to calculate the number of peak and trough cycles in the payload data. This process is called data compression.

[0101] The peak and trough loads are extracted, and the equivalent data between adjacent loads are compressed at the same time. In addition, since the acquired dynamic load data contains many tiny loads that do not cause damage to the parts, that is, invalid amplitudes, in order to reduce the counting workload, these invalid loads need to be deleted before load counting.

[0102] (2) Extracting the Rainflow Count Cycle

[0103] The process of rainflow counting of load spectrum is roughly divided into two steps: the first step is to count the first rainflow of load spectrum, and then dock the load spectrum; the simplified step of retaining or removing the first and last points of the load spectrum is called docking. The load spectrum obtained after the first rainflow counting belongs to a standard divergent-convergent load spectrum, which makes the counting method unable to cycle. This method is to cut at the maximum or minimum load spectrum position, and then connect the first and last points. If these two points are not exactly closed, they can be processed according to the waveform selection; the second step is to count the second rainflow of load spectrum and extract all load cycles. The purpose of the second rainflow counting of load spectrum is to extract the load cycle again from the adjusted load spectrum until a complete cycle consisting of three maximum points is left. .

[0104] Furthermore, the first strain load spectrum and the wheel center acceleration load spectrum are calculated by the load cycle to evaluate the damage strength of the stabilizer bar. The process of gradual accumulation of damage and gradual consumption of life of the material under cyclic load loading conditions is usually called fatigue failure of the part. When the accumulated damage of the part in a certain area reaches the inherent life of the material, the part will suffer fatigue failure. According to the linear fatigue cumulative damage theory, when fatigue failure occurs,

[0105]

[0106] Where D i represents the damage caused under the i-th level stress condition; n i represents the rain flow statistics under the i-th level stress; N i Represents the life of the part under the i-th level stress condition.

[0107] In engineering practice, since the real fatigue life curve (SN curve) of parts is affected by the material, the design structure and manufacturing process of the parts will affect the SN curve, so when evaluating the damage caused by the accumulation of cyclic loads on parts, fatigue pseudo-damage is often used as the evaluation standard. If the SN curve of the material is unknown, it is usually based on experience to select a SN curve corresponding to a material that is relatively close to the material of the part as a substitute. This method can retain the damage caused by cyclic loads to the material as completely as possible.

[0108] The fatigue pseudo damage calculation formula can be obtained from the fatigue linear cumulative damage theory:

[0109] S m N = c;

[0110] Among them, m represents a constant determined according to stress properties and materials; c represents a constant determined by known conditions.

[0111] The actual load stress is divided into l levels, and the corresponding generalized stress cycle rain flow matrix of a certain channel is:

[0112] N=[N1 N2…N i ] T ;

[0113] The corresponding generalized stress cycle rain flow matrix is:

[0114]

[0115] The total fatigue pseudo damage caused under fatigue load conditions is:

[0116]

[0117] S106: If the damage intensity evaluated by the first strain load spectrum and the wheel center acceleration load spectrum is consistent with the damage intensity evaluated by the hard point load spectrum and the second strain load spectrum, the first strain load spectrum, the wheel center acceleration load spectrum, the hard point load spectrum and the second strain load spectrum are edited and processed, and a multi-level program load spectrum of the stabilizer bar is compiled in combination with the calibration curve.

[0118] See also Figure 6 , the step S106 specifically includes steps S1061 to S1064:

[0119] S1061, gradually performing load spectrum mathematical statistics and load spectrum extrapolation on the first strain load spectrum, the wheel center acceleration load spectrum, the hard point load spectrum, and the second strain load spectrum;

[0120] S1062, after the load spectrum extrapolation is completed, a corresponding two-dimensional damage matrix is ​​established according to the load spectrum damage statistics;

[0121] S1063, establishing a corresponding one-dimensional damage matrix using a load-stress function, the first strain load spectrum, the wheel center acceleration load spectrum, the hard point load spectrum, and the second strain load spectrum;

[0122] S1064: compile a multi-level program load spectrum for the stabilizer bar according to the two-dimensional damage matrix, the one-dimensional damage matrix, and the calibration curve.

[0123] In the specific implementation, the first strain load spectrum, the wheel center acceleration load spectrum, the hard point load spectrum and the second strain load spectrum are gradually subjected to load spectrum mathematical statistics and load spectrum extrapolation. Since the above-extracted load spectrum is only the load spectrum of one test cycle, there is randomness in the load spectrum of each cycle, and the extracted load spectrum cannot fully represent the characteristics of the entire cycle. In order to further analyze the statistical characteristics of the load spectrum, it is necessary to extrapolate the load spectrum.

[0124] Before the load spectrum is extrapolated, it is necessary to examine the distribution law of the load spectrum range and mean under the entire cycle condition. The method for analyzing the load spectrum distribution characteristics is usually to use statistical methods to analyze the counting results to obtain the load spectrum distribution law. A large number of engineering practices have proved that under random excitation, the loads borne by automobile chassis components show significant random distribution characteristics. In general, the range of the load spectrum is Weibull distribution and the mean is normal distribution.

[0125] The load range distribution is statistically analyzed to obtain the load range frequency cumulative distribution histogram and the load mean frequency cumulative distribution histogram, such as Figures 7 and 8 As shown in the figure, it can be seen that the load range obeys the Weibull function distribution, and the load mean is normally distributed, which conforms to the load distribution law.

[0126] Furthermore, the load data obtained by the whole vehicle virtual test will be affected by the modeling accuracy. Usually, the virtual test only extracts the load data of one cycle, and the sample obtained is small. The load amount contained in the statistical data obtained is quite different from the load amount required for the bench test, and it cannot fully simulate most of the loads in the real test field test. Load spectrum extrapolation is to make up for this deficiency, and select appropriate extrapolation models and tools to obtain the equivalent load that can represent the complete fatigue endurance test.

[0127] The key point of fatigue load spectrum compilation is to ensure that the compiled load spectrum retains the fatigue characteristics of the original load spectrum. Since the length of the load spectrum obtained in the above steps is too short, the statistical characteristics of the load spectrum cannot be fully expressed. In order to make the load spectrum more in line with the actual situation, the load frequency needs to be extrapolated before starting to compile the load spectrum. In this embodiment, a parameter extrapolation method is used to extrapolate the load spectrum. The distribution law of the population is estimated based on the sample, and then the limited sample data is expanded and extrapolated according to the distribution law of the population.

[0128] In this application, GlyphWorks software is used to perform pseudo-damage calculations using the stress-life analysis method. Dividing the load spectrum into 8 levels can fully reflect the fatigue characteristics of the structure, and the range is graded according to the ratio coefficients of 1.000, 0.950, 0.850, 0.725, 0.575, 0.425, 0.275, and 0.125, and the mean is graded at equal intervals. Combined with the calculated damage histograms under different load amplitudes, the damage results of the stress spectrum are statistically analyzed to obtain an 8x8 two-dimensional damage matrix;

[0129] Through the load-stress relationship obtained by the above-mentioned bench calibration, the load-stress function, the first strain load spectrum, the wheel center acceleration load spectrum, the hard point load spectrum and the second strain load spectrum are calculated to obtain the load values ​​corresponding to each level of stress range. The fatigue damage caused by the random load spectrum under different load levels can be well quantified through fatigue damage calculation. According to the fatigue damage equivalence principle, the conversion relationship between the random fatigue matrix and the program load damage matrix is ​​obtained, and the damage corresponding to each level of load is calculated by GlyphWorks software. The load frequency required to cause the total damage of each load level is calculated according to the fatigue damage equivalence principle, and the load is compressed by omitting the low-level load method. It can be seen from the damage accumulation theory that stress below 60% of the fatigue limit has almost no effect on the fatigue result. In this embodiment, conservative compression is performed to eliminate the first three levels of load. After eliminating the small load, the load spectrum retains 99.84% of the damage, and the length is reduced to 1 / 16 of the original load spectrum, with obvious acceleration effect. Finally, a load spectrum using a low-high-low loading sequence is obtained, that is, a multi-level program load spectrum.

[0130] In summary, the method for compiling the load spectrum in the above embodiment of the present invention is to determine the strain measuring point position of the stabilizer bar by using the cloud map and the failure position of the stabilizer bar in the road test, and to perform component bench calibration on the stabilizer bar to obtain a corresponding calibration curve, and to perform linear verification on the calibration curve. When the linear verification passes, the first strain load spectrum and the wheel center acceleration load spectrum of the strain measuring point position are collected through the road test; the hard point load spectrum of the stabilizer bar is obtained by performing a multi-body dynamics analysis on the vehicle to be tested, and the second strain load spectrum of the strain measuring point position is obtained by performing a virtual test on the stabilizer bar, and the consistency of the damage intensity evaluated by the load spectrum is judged.
