Abstract

VSA modulator bracket is used to hold the modulator, which gives stability for the vehicle. The aim of the project is to design a low cost sheet metal and weight optimized bracket from the existing casting bracket. The functionality of this bracket is to withstand the external loads and to reduce the transfer stiffness for frontal crash. Design and optimize a low cost stamped steel VSA bracket meeting all the criteria for assembly, packaging, manufacturing, Structural behavior / functional performance being optimized for weight and cost. This project work involves the modeling of using CATIA; the preprocessing is done in HYPERMESH and analysis of using different materials in ANSYS software’s.
