Major Failures in Automobile Components

Abstract

Microscopic and Macroscopic Fracture Analysis Techniques have been used to find out causes of failure of automotive parts. This paper is a combination of research as well as a case study of nearly all types of failures which will help to optimize life and reliability of automotive parts .Aim of this paper is to make clear the differences among various modes of failures and their causes so that one can proceed for their failure analysis and take necessary actions.
