Abstract

This research paper provides a review of the optimization of the mass of a bearing housing using the finite element method FEM . In the competitive world of automobiles, having a lightweight yet strong component is crucial for fuel efficiency and cost savings. This is especially important when it comes to designing components that meet safety requirements. Failure in manufacturing, construction, servicing, raw materials, or operating conditions can lead to problems. One common issue is the continuous fatigue failure of the center bearing bracket, which can eventually cause the propeller shaft to fail and lead to transmission failure. To address this problem, computer aided CAD design software is used to improve the bracket material without compromising its performance. Through the use of CATIA V5 software and finite element method FEM analysis with ANSYS software, the CAD model of the bearing bracket is thoroughly examined. The objective of this research is to find a technique that reduces the weight of the bearing bracket material using software while ensuring it remains strong and functions properly. By employing these tools and methods, we can achieve a lightweight yet reliable solution for automotive applications. Overall, this study focuses on using software to design a lighter bearing bracket without compromising its strength and functionality, aiming to improve fuel efficiency and reduce costs in the automotive industry.
