Abstract

This study analyzes about front axle through the analyses of stress, fatigue and vibration. Maximum equivalent stress is shown with the frequency of 60Hz in case of the harmonic vibration analysis applied with force. Among the cases of nonuniform fatigue loads, 'SAE bracket history' with the severest change of load becomes most unstable but 'Sample history' becomes most stable. In case of 'Sample history' with the average stress of 0 to $-2{\times}10^5MPa$ and the amplitude stress of 0 to $-2{\times}10^5MPa$, the possibility of maximum damage becomes 3%. This stress state can be shown with 6 times more than the damage possibility of 'SAE Bracket history' or 'SAE transmission'. The structural result of this study can be effectively utilized with the design of front axle by investigating prevention and durability against its damage.
