Design Optimization and Analysis of Leaf Spring Using Static Load Conditions
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 7
Abstract
A leaf spring is the simplest type of suspension system, widely used in heavy commercial vehicles. The leaf spring is a structural member and acts as an energy absorbing system on the virtue of its deflection. In this research work leaf springs are analyzed using finite element methods considering different parameters. Parameters considered in the analysis are the material of the leaf spring and two different model geometries. This paper includes the study of deflection and stress distribution of leaf spring for heavy duty vehicles, considering various recent materials and change in the thickness of the leaf springs. The results highlight the best suitable material for leaf spring and its design optimization.
