Quality Feel (Static) Analysis
You will evaluate SnR issues for static/touch point locations.
In various industry, the perceived quality is measure by the touch and feel of the
product. While being a subjective topic, the engineering community have broken down this
assessment to different load cases. One of them is the Quality feel, which usually
consist of applying a static force on different location of the product, simulating a
consumer touching/pressing the parts. The first assessment is to measure the stiffness
[N/mm]
and compare to the target. While the stiffness can be
acceptable, other issues can occur such as squeak noises. These are the result of
stick-slip between parts touching each other. With SnRD Static load cases setup and the
associated post-processing capabilities, analysts can now Squeak Evaluation under static push loads.
