Fastener Installation Pattern Optimization in Airplane Assembly Process

arXiv:2010.07256

Abstract

Within the framework of an airplane assembly process, in particular the process of fastener installation at drilled holes, the following two problems are studied in this work: quadratic programming optimization of final fastener positioning, and optimization of the fastener installation order. Several algorithms were suggested, modelled on MATLAB, tested and compared.
