Stress Optimization of Engine Support Bracket

Abstract

This paper briefs about the several facts about the Engine Bracket which plays a vital role in any Automobile. Engine bracket is sustaining heavier shocks on roads so it’s being very crucial to analyses this component on stress point of view and minimize the stress to maximum possible extent. An attempt is made in this paper to reduce the stress occurring in the component by varying the materials and by changing the geometrical conditions and to find out best combination of material as well as geometry which will ultimately satisfy all engineering conditions. The design part of the component has covered with the help of CATIA software and the whole analysis part is done with the help of ANSYS software. The current paper will also cover some historical references of the relevant data and conclusions from them so that future researches can easily grab those references. Ultimately this paper will result in suggesting the best combination of material and geometry which will sustain at mentioned engineering frequency.
