Strength Analysis of Steering Knuckle Arm on Veyron Car

Abstract:

The steering knuckle arm is one of the important parts of Veyron automobile. In order to study its stress-strain distribution law under the forward and backward conditions, the geometric model was established under Pro/E, the pressure load which was applied on the inner curve surface was un-uniform in real condition, given triangle pressure loading, its strength under the two conditions was drawn with the finite element analysis, the maximum stress lied the joint part between inner curved surface and the threaded shaft, it was 199.984MPa. The results were in accord to the real conditions. The above research was useful for structural design and material handling.
