Abstract

A shock absorber or a suspension system is a mechanical device used to absorb shock loads and dissipate kinetic energy. Shock absorbers are used to reduce the effect of traveling over rough ground, leading to improved ride quality, and increase in comfort due to substantially reduced amplitude of disturbances. In this project a shock absorber is designed and a 3D model is created using Pro/Engineer. Structural analysis and fatigue analysis are done to by varying the materials as structural steel; chrome vanadium and AISI steel 1050. In this project a shock absorber is designed and a 3D model is created using Pro/Engineer and the analysis is made by using FINATE ELEMENT ANALYSIS (FEM). Structural analysis and fatigue analysis are carried on the spring by varying the materials as structural steel, chrome vanadium and AISI 1050 steel. Comparison is made by between the simulation, analytical and experimental values for deflection and maximum shear stress.

 

Keywords: shock absorber, shock loads, coil spring, fatigue analysis, structural analysis.
