Abstract

The riveting process involves numerous parameters and complex problems, such as contact phenomena and material nonlinearity; therefore, it is challenging to accurately control the deformation of riveted parts by adjusting the riveting parameters. Therefore, this paper proposes a global sensitivity analysis method to determine the effects of riveting parameters on the maximum deformation of aeronautical thin-wall structures (ATWS). Considering the correlation among variables, the riveting parameters are used as input variables and the maximum deformations of ATWS are used as the output response to establish a high-precision second-order random sampling-high dimensional model representation response function. The structure and correlative sensitivity analysis method is then used to analyze the response function, and an importance ranking of the input variables is obtained to provide guidance for designs that reduce the riveting deformation of thin-walled plates.
