摘要

To elucidate the stresses and deformations occurring during the assembly of the powerhouse fairing, finite element analysis (ABAQUS) was employed to emulate the assembly process. A numerical simulation model was constructed for the assembly process of the weakly rigid composite fairing by digitizing its geometry, material properties, and the forces exerted during assembly. Initially, the geometric data and material parameters of the fairing were meticulously collected and analyzed, considering its weakly rigid composite material properties. Subsequently, the finite element analysis method was utilized to partition the fairing’s geometry into minute regions, thereby establishing a numerical simulation model of the fairing assembly process. During the simulation, various forces acting on the fairing during assembly, such as the binding force of the assembly fixture and mechanical loads, were taken into account. The stress and deformation distributions during the fairing assembly process were derived through numerical simulation of the model. The findings indicate that the overall stiffness distribution law of the weakly rigid composite fairing can be summarized as follows: larger fixed boundaries, smaller applied forces, more rigid materials, and more intricate geometries enhance the overall stiffness of the fairing.
