Three-Dimensional Finite Element Analysis of the Cold Expansion of Fastener Holes in Two Aluminum Alloys
Abstract
Abstract
A three-dimensional finite element analysis is developed for the cold expansion process in two aluminum alloys, 2024-T351 and 7050-T7451. The entire cold working process including hole expansion, elastic recovery, and finish reaming is simulated. Both isotropic hardening and kinematic hardening models are considered in the numerical calculations. The results suggest that a three-dimensional nature exists in the …
