FEA-based optimisation of a clinching process with an open multiple-part die aimed at damage minimisation in CR240BH-AlSi10MnMg joints

The paper presents results of a FEA-based tool design optimisation for a clinching process with an open multiple-part die. The studied materials are the bake-hardening steel CR240BH (1.5 mm) on the punch side and the die-cast aluminium alloy AlSi10MnMg (2.95 mm) on the die side. The objective of the...
