Abstract: Steering knuckle is one of important component of vehicle which is connected to steering, suspension and brake to
chassis of vehicle. It undergoes different loading under different conditions. In this Project Main concept Over all concept of
my project is light weight reduction ratio in main reason. we have done static analysis of steering knuckle. The Steering
Knuckle component is the most important part of vehicle which is connected to front wheel with the help of suspension
system, wheel hub and these are also connected to steering system and brake to the chassis. The Steering Knuckle component
provides motion to desire directions with the help of steering system. It undergoes various types of varying load under
different conditions.
The design of Steering Knuckle component is done with the help of Computer Aided Engineering (CAE).
Steering Knuckle model is prepare in catia and the static analysis and modal analysis is done in ANSYS WORKBENCH15.0
by constraining the steering knuckle and applying load on steering knuckle due to caliper mounting, longitudinal reaction,
vertical reaction, vehicle weight and steering reaction. In this we have focused on optimizing the best use of material for the
steering knuckle component and compare it, made from conventional materials AL2011T3, EN24, AL 7075 T6, GREY CAST
IRON, Finally concluded the suitable material for the steering knuckle compared with recently using material Based on the
static results Von-misses stress, strain, deformation, strain and Modal analysis find out the total deformation at different
frequencies.
