Modal Analysis of press fit shaft hub assembly

Hello All,

for my master project i need to do Modal analysis of press fiit shaft hub connection to find natural frequencies. I have used friction free contact for the press fit simulation.

 

1. I found that the differnce between calculated contact pressure and simulated contact pressure is large

2. As the contact interfaces in Modal analysis are ignored, i am trying to idealize the press fit interface by spring, But can anyone please explain how may i calculate the stiffness of spring for press fit interface, or is there any other method to perform modal analysis for press fit.

 

I ghave attached the CAD files and mathcad calculation in the folder. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

there is no deviation, the results are the same

Modal analysis is linear but contact problem is nonlinear.
Your CAD data is created with a training version, better STEP

Hello, could you please tell how may i linearize it with springs. 

 

i have only access to training version, doe it cause any differnce in the results.?
