CUSTOMIZED SPRING AND DAMPER OF AN ATV

Shock absorbers are a critical part of a suspension system, connecting the vehicle to its wheels. The need for designing the dampers arises because of the roll and pitches associated with vehicle maneuvering, and from the roughness of roads. In the mid nineteenth century, road quality was generally very poor. Shock absorbers are devices that smooth out an impulse experienced by a vehicle, and appropriately dissipate or absorb the kinetic energy. shock absorbers have become such an essential component of an automobile even then there has been no particular method to test it using Finite Element Analysis technique and most of the testing is done using the physical tests. Thus this paper focuses on to develop new correlated methodologies that will allow engineers to design components of Shock Absorbers by using FEM based tools.
