TimSchrader2 I ended up doing some more FEA of the longer tube; fixing it at the ends where the diameter changes. The results were a bit more realistic looking here; the tube deformed at the clamp. I don't have much info on the corrugation as the exhaust comes from...
Hi all,
I'm new here so please correct me if I'm posting in the wrong place etc.
I have a car silencer which I'm effectively putting a hose clamp round and securing a heatshield. There is a thin wall (~0.1mm) surrounding insulation, which surrounds the actual exhaust pipe.
I want to work out...
