Design and FEA of Impact Damper for Four-wheeler car

Abstract

Abstract: The problem of over speeding vehicles in highway transportation is one of major problem faced in the current scenario of Indian traffic. The issue of over speeding not only damages the vehicle but the serious consequence of this is there due to loss of precious life. In real life scenario accidents in are totally unavoidable we can only have counter measures to prevent them and avoid the fatalitiesinvolved. Safety impact guard is one of the real-time counter measures which reduce the impact when the vehicle is involved in high speed impact. The proposed design which is being discussed in detail throughout this paper is for design of a re-usable safety impact damper with pressure relief valve. This design discusses the force of energy or impact that is dampened due to the action of the impact damper with the pressure relief valve. The entire objective of the project is to reduce the fatalities by designing an impact damper which provides safety against the front and rear end collisions.
