Patent ID: 11046378

Abstract:
The analysis method of optimizing a joint location of an automotive body of this disclosure is to determine an additional welded point 75 to be added to an automotive body frame model 31, including: an automobile model generation step S3 to generate an automobile model by joining the automotive body frame model 31 to a chassis model 51 via a joining portion; a driving analysis step S5 to perform a driving analysis of the automobile model to acquire a load generated at the joining portion during driving; an optimization analysis model generation step S7 to generate an optimization analysis model 71 by setting welding candidates 73 on the automotive body frame model 31; an optimization analysis condition setting step S9 to set optimization analysis conditions; and an optimization analysis step S11 to apply the load generated at the joining portion to the optimization analysis mode 71 to select an additional welded point 75 that satisfies the optimization analysis conditions from the welding candidates 73.
