Detailed Implementation

[0018] The embodiments of this application are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.

[0019] The following describes a strength simulation method, apparatus, and electronic device for transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf springs according to embodiments of this application, with reference to the accompanying drawings. Addressing the problems mentioned in the background art regarding non-convergence in simulations of transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf springs, easily distorted boundary conditions, and inaccurate ply modeling, this application provides a strength simulation method for transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf springs. In this method, a suspension system geometric model is imported, including transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf springs. A first connection relationship and a second connection relationship of the suspension system geometric model and the transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf springs are determined. Based on a preset ply information table, the transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf springs are cut into multiple fiber leaf spring segments, and a local coordinate system is established for each fiber leaf spring segment. The ply base surface of each fiber leaf spring is determined, and a mesh is generated based on the ply base surface of each fiber leaf spring for the corresponding fiber leaf spring. The normal direction of each mesh is defined as follows: Along a preset ply direction, and according to a preset ply parameter table, a Set element set is established for the mesh within the length range of each fiber ply. The material properties and laminate properties of each fiber ply are determined. Based on these properties, the fiber plies are stacked to obtain a composite laminate. The stacking direction of the composite laminate is determined, and the laminates are stacked according to this direction to obtain a simulation model for each fiber leaf spring. A simulation model of a transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf spring is established based on the simulation model of each fiber leaf spring and the second connection relationship. A simulation model of the suspension system is then established based on the simulation model of the transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf spring and the first connection relationship. Strength tests are performed on the simulation model of the suspension system to obtain strength simulation results. This solves the problems of non-convergence calculation, distorted boundary conditions, and inaccurate ply modeling in the simulation of transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf springs, achieving high-precision, high-convergence strength simulation of the integrated transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf spring suspension under real load and constraint conditions.

[0020] Specifically, Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a strength simulation method for a transversely placed double-leaf continuous fiber spring provided in an embodiment of this application.

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, the strength simulation method for this transverse double-leaf continuous fiber spring includes the following steps: In step S101, the suspension system geometric model is imported, wherein the suspension system geometric model includes a transverse double continuous fiber leaf spring.

[0022] Specifically, in this embodiment of the invention, a geometric model of the rear suspension system of a certain vehicle model can be imported using Hypermesh software, including the subframe, steering knuckle, control arm, shock absorber, and continuous fiber layup composite leaf spring, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the vehicle coordinate system is as follows: the positive X-axis (direction 1) points from the front to the rear of the vehicle, the positive Z-axis (direction 3) points vertically upwards, and the positive Y-axis (direction 2) of the vehicle coordinate system conforms to the right-hand screw rule. The rotation directions around the X, Y, and Z axes represent directions 4, 5, and 6, respectively. The composite material leaf spring is a transverse double-leaf spring mechanism, which simultaneously functions as a lower control arm, spring, and stabilizer bar in the rear suspension system.

[0023] In step S102, the first connection relationship of the suspension system geometric model and the second connection relationship of the transverse double continuous fiber leaf spring are determined.

[0024] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, the connection relationship of the transverse double-leaf continuous fiber plywood mechanism in the rear suspension system is identified to accurately establish the simulation model of the suspension system. The transverse double-leaf springs are connected to each other by spherical pins, and the continuous fiber leaf springs are connected to the steering knuckle and subframe respectively through metal joints (bolt connection) and rubber bushings. When the wheels on both sides bounce upward, the upper leaf spring mainly bears the load, and when the wheels bounce downward, the lower leaf spring mainly bears the load.

[0025] In step S103, according to the preset layup information table, the transverse double continuous fiber leaf spring is cut to obtain multiple fiber leaf spring segments, and a local coordinate system is established for each fiber leaf spring segment.

[0026] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the local coordinate system of each fiber leaf spring segment includes: a rectangular coordinate system for straight fiber leaf spring segments, and a cylindrical coordinate system for curved fiber leaf spring segments.

[0027] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the mechanism of the transverse double composite leaf spring contains 4 leaf springs. The modeling method of each long fiber layup composite leaf spring is the same. In this embodiment, the modeling process is specifically explained using the above leaf spring as an example. First, according to the preset layup information table, i.e. the long fiber layup length information table, the composite leaf spring is geometrically cut to ensure that the length after cutting covers the length range of each layer. At the same time, in order to ensure the continuity of fiber layup modeling, the geometric model needs to be divided into straight segments and arc segments, and a rectangular coordinate system and a cylindrical coordinate system are established respectively. Table 1 is a preset layer information table.

[0028] Table 1

[0029] In step S104, the ply base surface of each fiber leaf spring is determined, and the corresponding fiber leaf spring is meshed based on the ply base surface of each fiber leaf spring, wherein the normal direction of each mesh is along the preset ply direction.

[0030] The preset layup direction can be downward along the base surface.

[0031] Specifically, in this embodiment of the invention, the upper surface can be selected as the base surface for the long fiber layup, and the layup can be performed downward along the normal direction of the base surface. Therefore, after the upper surface is meshed (S4R elements), it is checked whether the normal direction of the mesh is all downward. If not, it is adjusted so that the normal direction is all downward.

[0032] In step S105, according to the preset layup parameter table, the mesh within the length range of each fiber layup is established as a Set unit set, and the material properties and laminate properties of each fiber layup are determined. The fiber layups are stacked according to the material properties and laminate properties of each fiber layup to obtain a composite material laminate.

[0033] Specifically, the properties of long fiber monolayer materials are established, including elastic modulus in directions 1 and 2, Poisson's ratio, and shear modulus in directions 12, 23, and 31. A set of elements (SET) is established. Based on the layup parameter table of the composite leaf spring, which contains information on the layup direction and length of each layer of fabric, the S4R elements contained within the layup length range of each layer are established as a Set of elements to prepare for the subsequent establishment of the properties of the composite monolayer plate.

[0034] Furthermore, the properties of single-layer composite materials and laminates are established: the properties of composite materials are set using the Ply+Stack layup definition method in Hypermesh, that is, the range of each physical layup of composite materials is defined, one physical layup corresponds to one ply card, and then the ply cards are stacked in sequence to form a complete laminate.

[0035] In step S106, the stacking direction of the composite laminate is determined, and the composite laminate is stacked according to the stacking direction to obtain a simulation model of each fiber leaf spring. A simulation model of a transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf spring is established based on the simulation model of each fiber leaf spring and the second connection relationship. A simulation model of the suspension system is established based on the simulation model of the transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf spring and the first connection relationship. The strength of the simulation model of the suspension system is tested to obtain the strength simulation results.

[0036] Specifically, the stacking direction of the composite laminate is defined. Since the normal direction of all elements points from the top surface to the bottom surface, and the stacking direction also points from the top surface to the bottom surface, in this example, only one property needs to be created to define the stacking direction of all elements.

[0037] Then, using the same method, a long fiber layup simulation model for the remaining three leaf springs was established. The metal ball head and the leaf springs were connected by rbe2 rigid body elements, and the two leaf springs were connected to each other by Jointc integrated spring elements to simulate the connection of the spherical pin.

[0038] In the suspension system, the subframe, steering knuckle, and control arm are modeled using equivalent beam elements, the shock absorbers are simulated using cycloid elements, and the connecting bushing between the subframe and control arm is simulated using bushing elements; the connecting bushing between the steering knuckle and control arm is also simulated using bushing elements. The long fiber plywood leaf spring mechanism is connected to the subframe and steering knuckle via rubber bushings, such as... Figure 7 As shown.

[0039] Furthermore, in some embodiments, a strength test is performed on the simulation model of the suspension system to obtain strength simulation results, including: applying a load at the steering knuckle center position of the suspension system, calculating the strength value of the transverse double continuous fiber leaf spring under various load conditions, and obtaining the strength simulation results based on the strength value of the transverse double continuous fiber leaf spring under various load conditions.

[0040] Optionally, in some embodiments, the load conditions include at least one of the following: vertical impact condition, extreme turning condition, emergency braking condition, torsional condition, and curb impact condition.

[0041] Specifically, in combination Figure 8 As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, after obtaining the simulation model of the suspension system, a load is applied at the steering knuckle wheel center position, and the strength performance of the long fiber plywood leaf spring mechanism is calculated under various load conditions such as vertical impact, extreme turning, emergency braking, torsion, and curb impact. Since the leaf spring mechanism is located in the suspension system, the actual rubber bushing and spherical pin stiffness are simulated inside the system through the Bushing unit and the jointc integrated spring unit, which restricts the free movement of the leaf spring mechanism in the system, consistent with the actual situation. There is no need to consider the constraints and non-convergence issues, and the deformation of the mechanism is also consistent with the actual situation.

[0042] Therefore, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: Firstly, the overall calculation method combining the Beam beam unit suspension system model with the continuous fiber layup transverse double leaf spring mechanism model solves the problems of non-convergence in mechanism calculation and the inability of inertial release to support nonlinearity.

[0043] Secondly, the spherical pins between the double leaf springs use Jointc integrated spring units, and the rubber bushings connecting the transverse double leaf springs to the subframe and steering knuckle all use Bushing units to accurately simulate the connection stiffness of the mechanism. The internal stiffness constrains the deformation of the mechanism, which is more consistent with the actual situation.

[0044] Thirdly, when loading the wheel center of the suspension system model, strong nonlinear problems such as material nonlinearity and large structural deformation can be considered, resulting in higher calculation accuracy.

[0045] Fourthly, the geometric structure of the continuous fiber layup leaf spring is segmented (straight and circular segments), and local rectangular and cylindrical coordinate systems are established to ensure the continuity of the continuous fiber layup in different segments and improve the calculation accuracy.

[0046] According to the strength simulation method for transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf springs proposed in this application, the method involves importing a suspension system geometric model, which includes transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf springs, determining the first connection relationship and the second connection relationship of the suspension system geometric model and the transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf springs, and cutting the transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf springs into multiple fiber leaf spring segments according to a preset layup information table, and establishing a local coordinate system for each fiber leaf spring segment. The method also determines the layup base surface of each fiber leaf spring and performs mesh generation on the corresponding fiber leaf spring based on the layup base surface of each fiber leaf spring, wherein the normal direction of each mesh is along a preset layup direction. Based on a preset layup parameter table, each layer of fiber leaf springs is laid... A set of elements is created by establishing a mesh within the layer length range, and the material properties of each fiber layup and the properties of the laminate are determined. Based on these properties, the fiber layups are stacked to obtain a composite laminate. The stacking direction of the composite laminate is determined, and the laminates are stacked according to this direction to obtain a simulation model for each leaf spring. A simulation model of a transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf spring is then established based on the simulation model of each leaf spring and the second connection relationship. Finally, a simulation model of the suspension system is established based on the simulation model of the transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf spring and the first connection relationship. Strength tests are performed on the simulation model of the suspension system to obtain the strength simulation results. This solves the problems of non-convergence calculation, distorted boundary conditions, and inaccurate layup modeling in the simulation of transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf springs, achieving high-precision and high-convergence strength simulation of the integrated transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf spring suspension under real load and constraint conditions.

[0047] Next, referring to the accompanying drawings, a strength simulation device for a transversely placed double-leaf continuous fiber spring according to an embodiment of this application is described.

[0060] Optionally, in some embodiments, the load conditions include at least one of the following: vertical impact condition, extreme turning condition, emergency braking condition, torsional condition, and curb impact condition.

[0061] It should be noted that the explanation of the aforementioned embodiment of the strength simulation method for transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf springs also applies to the strength simulation device for transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf springs in this embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

[0062] According to the strength simulation device for transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf springs proposed in this application, the device imports a suspension system geometric model, which includes transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf springs. It determines the first connection relationship and the second connection relationship of the suspension system geometric model and the transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf springs.

The device determines the layup base surface of each fiber leaf spring and performs meshing on the corresponding fiber leaf spring based on the layup base surface of each fiber leaf spring. The normal direction of each mesh is along a preset layup direction. Based on a preset layup parameter table, each layer of fiber leaf springs is laid... A set of elements is created by establishing a mesh within the layer length range, and the material properties of each fiber layup and the properties of the laminate are determined. Based on these properties, the fiber layups are stacked to obtain a composite laminate. The stacking direction of the composite laminate is determined, and the laminates are stacked according to this direction to obtain a simulation model for each leaf spring. A simulation model of a transverse double-leaf continuous fiber leaf spring is then established based on the simulation model of each leaf spring and the second connection relationship.
