Modeling of interference fits taking form defects of the surfaces in contact into account

Abstract The technique of assembly by shrink fit is increasingly used today. However, the methodology of parts sizing has not changed in 50 years. Assembled parts are assumed to have accurate dimensions and very low form defects. This has the disadvantage of increasing the cost of parts production. To reduce manufacturing costs, the study of the influence of form defects on the characteristics of assembly strength is essential. Taking default form into account assumes that the tightening (difference between the diameters of the shaft and the bore) is defined. In the case under consideration, the tightening depends locally on the radius. Two definitions of the tightening are proposed: maximu…

Modelling of interference fits with taking into account surfaces roughness with homogenization technique

International audience; The assembly technique by shrink fit is increasingly used today because it allows for the assembly of two pieces without any intermediary part simply by the tightening effect given by the difference in diameters of the two parts assembled. The definition of assemblies depends on calculation models available in the standard. They make very restrictive assumptions that limit the geometrical defects and the surface finish. It is increasingly common to use a finite element method to better adapt the model to the complex forms of industrial parts. However, the standard is limited with regard to the consideration of roughness which results in a loss of tightening. An easy …
