A leaf spring is a basic type of spring often used for suspension in vehicles. Originally known as a laminated or carriage spring, and sometimes called a semi-elliptical spring, elliptical spring, or cart spring, leaf springs are one of the oldest forms of vehicle suspension. A Leaf spring consists of one or more narrow, curved,…
Consider the sketch of the movable crane. Make a free-body diagram of the mobile crane. The wheels are 4 ft apart and the center of gravity is halfway between the wheels. Assume the ballast is an external force acting one foot behind the left axle and that the weight hanging off the crane at point…
Determine the resultant internal normal force acting on the cross section through point A in each column. In (a), segment BC weighs 180 lb/ft and segment CD weighs 250 lb/ft. In (b), the column has a mass of 200 kg/m. Sample problems and notes are based on the following text book: Mechanics of Materials 8th…

Background/ Procedure: An instrument or gauge cluster is a device usually positioned in front of the driver which displays useful information for operating a vehicle. The information usually displayed in an instrument cluster is vehicle speed, remaining fuel/range in addition to any vehicle hazard/safety lights. The first vehicle to incorporate an instrument cluster into its…

Steel in a Car finds application in numerous car components like the frame, body, and moving parts such as chassis and powertrain components, thanks to its adaptability in meeting safety standards, crash requirements, and design specifications. Its exceptional capability to absorb and distribute crash energy, along with its buckling characteristics, makes it excellent for improving…
Foreword – This SAE Recommended Practice describes the eyellipse, a statistical representation of driver eye locations, which is used to facilitate design and evaluation of vision in motor vehicles. Examples of eyellipse applications include rearview mirror size and placement, wiped and defrosted areas, pillar size and location, and general exterior field of view. These applications…
