Optimization of Baseplate Hub Design for Swaging Operation
Abstract
Swaging process is studied through a 2-D axisymmetric finite element model with non-linear material models and allowing large deformation. The effects of major baseplate hub geometrical parameters are studied for the case of a single actuator arm with two suspensions. Linear regression model is established to quantify the important output variables. The linear regression model provides a clear understanding of the effects of hub dimensions.
