step S301: and carrying out independent grid division processing on the target holes corresponding to the two-dimensional shell unit structure model to obtain a hole part gridding model.
It can be understood that the separate mesh division processing may be a series of trilateral, quadrilateral or hexagon dividing the periphery of the target hole, or may be performed by adding an imprinting surface to the target hole according to the rivet pressing surface and then performing the separate mesh division processing on the imprinting surface.
Further, in order to separately partition the target holes and make the simulated stress result around the rivet hole more accurate, the separately meshing the target holes corresponding to the two-dimensional shell unit structure model includes: adding a marking surface on the periphery of the target hole according to the pressing surface of the rivet to obtain the target hole with the marking surface; and carrying out independent mesh division processing on the target hole with the imprinting surface.
It is understood that the stamping surface refers to an area divided from a large plane, and in this embodiment, the stamping surface has the same shape and size as the pressing surface of the rivet.
Step S302: and carrying out meshing processing on the models except the target hole in the two-dimensional shell unit structure model to obtain a partial meshing model.

Further, in order to convert the rivet connection unit into a beam structure unit having the same section as that of the rivet, and obtain an optimized target two-dimensional model, the step S401 includes: acquiring rivet connection unit information in the gridding two-dimensional model; determining rivet section information and a rivet-connected shell unit according to the rivet connection unit information; determining a remote point of action from the rivet-connected shell element; selecting a beam unit structure, wherein the section information corresponding to the beam unit structure is the same as the section information of the rivet; and connecting the remote action points through the beam unit structure to obtain a target two-dimensional model.
It can be understood that the rivet section information is obtained through parameter information corresponding to the three-dimensional model. In finite element analysis, when concentrated loads such as point loads are applied to the structure, stress concentration is easily caused at a stress point, so that a simulation result is inaccurate, and a remote action point has the function of transmitting the concentrated loads to elements such as lines, surfaces and the like in the result, so that the stress concentration is reduced, and the simulation precision is improved. The location of the remote point of action may be determined from the rivet, or from the beam element structure.
Further, in order to improve simulation accuracy, determining a remote action point and a transmission surface and enable a stress verification result to be more accurate, the determining the remote action point according to the shell unit connected by the rivet includes: determining a marking surface corresponding to the rivet connecting hole according to the shell unit connected by the rivet; and simulating the associated remote action point according to the imprinting surface.
It will be appreciated that prior to determining the corresponding footprint of the rivet attachment hole from the rivet attached shell element, the method further comprises: and adding an imprinting surface on the periphery of the rivet hole on the shell unit connected with the rivet according to the compression surface of the rivet, and determining a remote action point according to the imprinting surface, so that the concentrated stress is transmitted to the imprinting surface in the subsequent stress verification process, and the optimization simulation of the rivet is realized.
The model that rivet connection has been replaced through roof beam unit structure combination seal mark face and remote action point to this embodiment, has reduced the scale of frame finite element model effectively, has promoted finite element analysis's efficiency.
