Abstract |
|
Mudguards of two wheelers are subjected to harmonic and random vibration due to various road conditions. They are made up of Plastic or sheet metal structures which undergo failure at joints or cantilever ends. Reinforcement of these existing structures with epoxy and glass fiber will strengthen it in its dynamic characteristics. Modal analysis will be carried out to investigate stiffness of existing and reinforced structure. Modes shapes and resonant frequencies will be checked for both models. FFT analyzer and Impact hammer will be used to perform experimental modal analysis. Validation will be done by comparing both experimental and FEA results. Suitable conclusions will be drawn and future scope will be suggested. |
