Zusammenfassung

La gran parte de los componentes usados en la industria aeronáutica, automovilista o del transporte están sometidos a cargas de fatiga. Esos componentes deberían ser diseñados considerando la vida a fatiga. En este artículo el diseño de una escuadra ha sido simulad por MEF teniendo en cuenta el tipo de material, cargas aplicadas y la geometría. La geometría de la escuadra se ha optimizado usando el método de optimización robusta de Taguchi. Hasta donde los autores han comprobado no hay ninguna publicación que emplee el método de optimización robusta de Taguchi aplicándolo al diseño geométrico de elementos industriales tomando como variable de salida el coeficiente de fatiga de Findley. Este artículo presenta un método para determinar los parámetros críticos en el diseño que afectan a la vida a fatiga del componente. Esta idea es pionera y aplicable a otros diseños o aplicaciones mecánicas que pueden emplear esta metodología para el diseño robusto a la fatiga de partes y componentes mecánicos.
