Analisi tramite simulazione fem del processo di stampaggio ad iniezione di un componente automotive in polimero termoplastico

Nel presente elaborato vengono esposti in maniera esaustiva il processo di stampaggio ad iniezione dei polimeri termoplastici, la simulazione del processo mediante il codice fem fino ad arrivare alla simulazione con il software Autodesk® Simulation Moldflow® di un componente automotive. In particolare viene analizzato tramite simulazione fem il processo di stampaggio ad iniezione dell’asta di spinta del comando frizione in PA66 GF50 evidenziando la previsione dell’orientazione delle fibre di rinforzo.

Fault diagnosis of an automotive suspension system

With the development of the embedded application and driving assistance systems, it becomes relevant to develop parallel mechanisms in order to check and to diagnose these new systems. In this thesis we focus our research on one of this type of parallel mechanisms and analytical redundancy for fault diagnosis of an automotive suspension system. We have considered a quarter model car passive suspension model and used a parameter estimation, ARX model, method to detect the fault happening in the damper and spring of system. Moreover, afterward we have deployed a neural network classifier to isolate the faults and identifies where the fault is happening. Then in this regard, the safety measurements and redundancies can take into the effect to prevent failure in the system. It is shown that The ARX estimator could quickly detect the fault online using the vertical acceleration and displacement sensor data which are common sensors in nowadays vehicles. Hence, the clear divergence is the ARX response make it easy to deploy a threshold to give alarm to the intelligent system of vehicle and the neural classifier can quickly show the place of fault occurrence.
