STATIC BEHAVIOUR OF ENGINE MOUNTING BRACKET

Abstract: In this work an attempt was made to analyse the engine mounting bracket. Design includes the modelling of the engine mounting brackets by taking into account all packaging constraints. Analysis includes Static Analysis of engine mounting bracket. The main purpose of this study is to examine the natural frequency of by analytically and through developing the model and self excitation frequency of engine bracket. An attempt was made to check whether the natural frequency of engine mounting bracket is less than self excitation frequency of engine bracket. Hence this work is carried by using ERW-1, ERW-2, aluminium and magnesium alloys for the engine mount bracket. The results are analysed for stresses and deformations.

Keywords: ANSYS, static structure, ERW-1 steels, ERW-2 steels.
