Abstract

Stress and strain analysis is very important to predicting and preventing failures in materials when those are exposed to load. This paper aims to model and simulate the stresses and strain analysis of a hydraulic and ferro fluid twin tube shock absorber application of 356 kg designed. Modelling and analysis were performed by using modelling software and analysis software i.e. Solid Work 2014, ANSYS and HYPERMESH10. Initially a 3D modal of shock absorber was created by SolidWorks and meshing is carried out by hypermesh software. Stress and frequencies of both the twin tube shock absorbers were determined by Ansys. The obtained values are compared with analytical values.
