    static stiffness testing of frame

    it is in btween a an SUV and Pick Up. The nuber I gave is an arbitrary number. I wnated to know, how to fix the vertical bending stiffness target? what is the theory or justification for fixing a particular target nuber. Regards sasank

    static stiffness testing of frame

    Thanks for the information. But, I wnated to know, how do we get the individual bracketry stiffnesses measured during the test. What boundary conditions they use for testing. Also, another question is suppose if we want the bending stiffness of BIW or frame to be say around 4000 N/mm, what is...

    static stiffness testing of frame

    Hallo! can anybody tell me how an automotive frame (SUV or pickup) tested for static stiffness? Can we simulate this in FEA? If so, what boundary conditions we have to use to get the FEA results close to real time testing. Regards sasank

    Frequency response analysis using NASTRAN

    Greg Thanks for the reply. But, my question is can we validate this stiffness with some kind of test or theotically? Regards kamalakar

    Frequency response analysis using NASTRAN

    Let me be more clear. My intention is to find the equivalent static stiffness at '0'Hz. displacements are my outputs from the analysis. (SOL111). I am finidng the static stiffness only without constraining the frame Regards Sasank

    von mises stress vs maximum shear stress

    Hallo! all when we look at the stresses in a component, generally we ignore the stresses at the bolt hole locations. The reason for this is the way we model, the bolt hole(with RBE2's). My question is how do we judge the stresses around the bolt holes? In some cases we may not ignore them!!!

    Frequency response analysis using NASTRAN

    Hallo! I am running point mobility to find out the '0' Hz equivalnet static stiffness of bracketry of a typical SUV frame.Calculating the deflections and from deflections calculating the stiffness. Aim is to find out the equivalent static stiffness in a free-free conditions. But, I do nothave...

    Hallo! Can anybody explain me wh

    Hallo! Can anybody explain me what is Point Mobility ? and What is a Transfer function? What is the relation between these two ? The resons I am asking these questions are I have to run point mobility analysis for an engine mount bracket which is coming on to a cradle. Regards Sasank

    mesh convergence

    Hallo! Can any body explain me how to check the mesh convergence. i.e, How we can decide whether the FE mesh of 100 or 200 elements will yield correct results? Is there any criteria to decide the number of elements in a FE Mesh

    Hi, I have to do frequency respons

    Guys, Thanks for response. I have another question? If we look for acceleartion response, and plot the acceleartion Vs Frequency graph, How can we use this information? To be more clear, suppose if I get the peak response (acceleration ) in the rane of say 150-200 Hz, How this information can be...

    Hi, I have to do frequency respons

    Thanks for the reply. I wanted to know some more information about frequency reposnse ana;ysis. To my knowledge, there are three methods in frequency response.They are 1) Displacement appraoch 2) Velocity approach 3) Acceleration approach My question is which of these approaches, we need to...
