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). The joining process was performed between two AA6082 sheets in two different heat treatment conditions by a TOX clinching tool. For the simulations the flow curves of material have determined by the so-called Watts-Ford compression test for both conditions. The applied FE software packages were the MSC.Marc&Mentat 2019 and the DEFORM2D 10.2.
