| Abstract: | This paper explores the finite element
modeling, analysis and fatigue life prediction of
lower suspension arm using the strain-life
approach. Aluminum alloys are selected as a
suspension arm materials. The structural model of
the suspension arm was utilizing the Solid works.
The finite element model and analysis were
performed utilizing the finite element analysis
code. TET10 mesh and maximum principal stress
were considered in the linear static stress analysis
and the critical location was considered at node
(6017). From the fatigue analysis, Smith-Watson-
Topper mean stress correction was conservative
method when subjected to SAETRN loading,
while Coffin-Manson model is applicable when
subjected to SAESUS and SAEBRKT loading.
From the material optimization, 7075-T6
aluminum alloy is suitable material of the
suspension arm. |
