Fatigue Analysis of Automative Steering Knucle

Steering knuckle plays a vital role in automobile which connects the suspension, steering part, wheel hub and brake to the chassis. During its working, it subjected to various loading conditions. so, it requires high accuracy,, quality, and durability. The main theme of this work is to access the fatigue performance of a steering knuckle. This can be performed by a detailed load analysis. Therefore, this study requires two steps. First part of the study involves modeling of the steering knuckle with the design parameters using the latest modeling software CATIA and the second part involves in fatigue analysis using ANSYS WORKBENCH. This provides us to improve the overall knowledge about the component.
