Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of aircraft assembly, and in particular relates to a method for optimizing the clamping force layout of a toothed wall panel taking solidification deformation into consideration. Background Art
[0002] At present, most of the research on aircraft panel assembly deformation focuses on product deformation caused by assembly conditions during the assembly process, and there are few studies that comprehensively consider curing deformation and assembly deformation. For example, the disclosed large-scale composite fuselage panel assembly clamping layout optimization method considers panel deformation, internal stress level and tooling cost to perform multi-objective optimization on discrete clamping layout, so as to achieve high-precision, high-performance and low-cost assembly clamping positioning of large composite fuselage panels; the combined prediction method for aircraft panel assembly deviation, this method uses Adam optimized BP neural network prediction model and substructure technology, and realizes the full consideration of the deviation caused by assembly relationship, assembly process, etc. under the condition of considering the initial error of parts, and accurately predicts the panel assembly deformation; the aircraft large component pre-connection layout and multi-constraint action sequence optimization method, this method establishes a large component pre-connection assembly quality prediction model based on different pre-connection layouts and sequences through finite element analysis and neural network, and establishes a multi-constraint action sequence optimization model based on this model, so as to achieve rapid search for the optimization of aircraft large component pre-connection and sequence, thereby improving assembly efficiency, reducing assembly gaps, and improving assembly quality.
[0003] The above methods and related technologies do not involve the influence of curing deformation on the assembly of wall panels, nor do they study thin-walled parts with specific shape characteristics, and there are still deficiencies in guiding the production process of toothed wall panels. Therefore, designing a suitable clamping force layout under the condition of considering curing deformation is of great significance to improving the assembly accuracy of composite toothed wall panels.
[0004] At present, a large number of toothed wall panels are used in advanced stealth aircraft to achieve better stealth performance. However, due to the large size of the toothed wall panels and their weak overall rigidity, they are easily affected by assembly conditions (gravity field, clamping layout, clamping error and clamping force, etc.) during the assembly stage, resulting in assembly deformation, causing gaps and step differences between the wall panels after assembly with the fuselage, which in turn affects the aerodynamic shape and stealth performance of the aircraft surface. On the other hand, the proportion of composite materials used in aircraft structures continues to increase, but there is little research on the forming and assembly process of composite toothed wall panels: traditional toothed wall panels are metal parts, and the serrated edges are obtained by cutting with a five-axis machine tool after the skin is stretched and formed; while composite toothed wall panels are prepregs with toothed edges produced during the blanking process. During the subsequent curing process, the wall panel edge shape changes dramatically and the internal interaction of the materials is significantly different, resulting in large deformation of the wall panel after curing and poor shape accuracy.
[0005] For composite toothed wall panels, production units are still in an empirical production mode, obtaining empirical data through repeated trials and then performing deformation compensation. In the subsequent assembly process, the curing deformation of the wall panels in their initial state is rarely considered. The fixtures manufactured according to the design data are difficult to ensure the spatial accuracy of the wall panels, and are prone to secondary deformation and out-of-tolerance problems.

[0213] In this embodiment, the Pareto frontier set obtained by optimizing the iteration through the multi-objective grey wolf optimization algorithm is as follows: Figure 6 As shown in the figure, it can be seen that the two optimization goals of absolute average deformation value and warping angle of tooth-shaped area cannot be optimal at the same time. In this embodiment, the warping angle of tooth-shaped area is given priority while ensuring that the average absolute deformation value of the wall panel surface is small. The solution with an absolute average deformation value of 0.1218 mm and a warping angle of 0.1688° in the tooth-shaped area is selected. The clamping layout distribution corresponding to this solution is shown in the figure below. Figure 7 As shown, the assembly deformation cloud diagram is as follows Figure 8 As shown;
[0214] In this embodiment, a set of conventional clamping layouts is set as a comparison. A clamping force of 50N is applied to the wall panel every 300mm, and 4 clamping points are arranged in the toothed area. The assembly deformation results obtained by the conventional layout are as follows: Fig. 9 As shown;
[0215] Compare the assembly deformation results of the conventional layout and the optimized layout. The actual deformation comparison cloud diagram is as follows: Fig.10 As shown. It can be seen that the overall deformation of the optimized wall panel is small, the deformation value of 90% of the area is less than 0.2mm, the maximum deformation is 0.6mm, which occurs at the right tooth tip, and the overall deformation distribution of the four tooth-shaped areas is relatively uniform, indicating that the warping angle of the tooth-shaped area is small. However, the overall deformation value of the wall panel in the conventional layout is unevenly distributed, with the maximum deformation of 1.6mm, which occurs at the left tooth tip, and the deformation distribution of the four tooth-shaped areas is uneven, indicating that the warping angle of the tooth-shaped area is large; the absolute average deformation value of the conventional layout is 0.2158mm, and the warping angle of the tooth-shaped area is 0.5417°. Compared with the conventional layout, the optimized layout reduces the two deformation measurement indicators by 43.56% and 68.84% respectively, which proves the effectiveness of the optimization method proposed in the present invention.
[0216] In summary, the present invention establishes a finite element model of the assembly clamping layout of the toothed wall panel considering the curing deformation based on the simulation calculation results of the curing deformation of the toothed skin of the composite material; then establishes a toothed wall panel clamping layout optimization method based on the multi-objective grey wolf optimization algorithm, describes the entire optimization process, and combines the finite element model of the clamping layout of the toothed wall panel considering the curing deformation and the multi-objective grey wolf optimization algorithm to carry out optimization analysis; finally, the most appropriate Pareto optimal solution is selected according to the actual needs of the project. Different from the traditional empirical trial and error method, the method of the present invention uses finite element analysis and numerical optimization techniques to find a better clamping force layout through theoretical calculation, avoiding the cost waste caused by repeated experimental trials and achieving a lower calculation cost; by comparing with the conventional layout, the clamping force layout obtained by this method can obtain a smaller absolute average deformation value of the wall panel surface and a smaller angle warping angle value of the toothed area, which shows that the wall panel deformation is effectively controlled and the effect and quality of the composite material toothed wall panel assembly process are improved.
