Potential of shear-clinching technology for joining of three sheets
Journal of Advanced Joining Processes, 2021 The load-specific design of car bodies often requires the joining of more than two sheets. However, due to the additional interfaces and the mutual influence of the joining partners, joining of multi-layer sheets is challenging.

Modeling strategy for clinched joints in assemblies
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2016 Clinching is a mechanical joining technique which involves severe local plastic deformation of two or more metal sheet parts resulting in a permanent mechanical interlock. Today, it is a reliable joining technique used in automotive, HVAC and general steel constructions whilst still gaining interest.

Mechanical Behaviour of Clinched Joints in Configurations [PDF]
The 18th International Conference on Experimental Mechanics, 2018 Clinch joining or clinching is a mechanical joining technique for sheet material. In this paper, the mechanical behaviour of multiple clinched joints under mixed-mode loads (peel, shear and pull-out) is investigated using a modified Arcan test. The experimental results are compared with a proposed equivalent model for clinched joints to validate if the

Investigation of aluminium clinched joints by FEA
IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2022 Abstract The aim of the present paper is to compare the results of clinch joining simulations of two finite element software. The comparison is taken in between the resultant force-displacement curves, and in between the most important geometrical parameters of the joints, as the undercut (C) and neck thickness (tN).

Vibration Measurements of Clinched Joints
Procedia CIRP, 2015 AbstractAs a result of the trend towards lightweight construction in sustainable manufacturing, there has been a significant increase in the use of clinched joints in engineering structures and components. Mechanical structures assembled by clinching are expected to possess a high damping capacity.
