Master thesis "Bonding calculation for metal bonding"
LOCATION: Kematen / Austria | BRAND: IFE | REQUISITION ID: 2073
IFE is the worldwide leading manufacturer of automatic entrance systems for railway vehicles. Wouldn’t it be great to play an active part in shaping the future of mobility?
INITIAL SITUATION
A significant proportion of the door leaves produced by IFE are designed as bonded constructions. Two cover sheets made of aluminum are glued onto the profile frame and the sandwich core.
According to the DIN 6701 bonding standard, a mathematical proof of strength is required for safety-relevant bondings, although the thin-layer adhesives used in cover sheet bonding are difficult to describe in terms of calculation. There is still no regulation or guideline on this.
In order to be prepared for future optimization tasks and for possible changes in the interpretation of the standard, a calculation method for describing door leaf bonding should be found.
In a preliminary work, the CZM (Cohesive Zone Modeling) method was already considered in more detail and the necessary parameters of the adhesive used at IFE were determined.
TASKS
Analysis of a simple door leaf and estimation of the critical bonding areas
Define simple specimens with which a loading situation analogous to the critical door leaf areas can be generated.
FE calculation of these specific specimens
Performing or supervising measurements to determine the load limits of the specimens
Comparing the FE results with the values of the measurements
Documenting and interpreting the results
REQUIREMENTS
Studies at a technical university or university of applied sciences
Basic knowledge of FEM (Finite Element Method) and fracture mechanics
Initiative
Solution-oriented way of working
