Steering System for FSAE Car
Abstract: In this study, the steering system and its analysis for the formula race car are presented and are designed, optimized and fabricated with the help of software analysis. The track width and wheelbase of an F1 car are used to find out the Ackermann angle; and with the use of the rest of the factors, optimization is implemented. The main objective is improving the actual steering system of the formulae …

Test methodology for validating drop arm of a tractor mechanical steering system under bi-axial loading
Abstract: The drop arm is a part of tractor mechanical steering system which connects the steering gearbox to drag link. The function of the drop arm is to convert the rotary motion of the steering gear shaft into linear motion of the drag link. During vehicle testing in the field drop arm failure was observed, which was not captured in the component level testing. Typically drop arm durability test is carried …
