BUCKLING ANALYSIS OF TRACTOR TIE ROD SUBJECTED TO COMPRESSIVE LOAD

Raghavendra K, Ravi K

Abstract: A tie rod is a slender structural rod that is used as a tie and capable of carrying tensile and compressive loads. As the ratio of its length to the radius of gyration of its cross section is normally quite large, it would likely buckle under the action of compressive forces. When it becomes worn out, steering will become more difficult there by producing clunking noise. The vehicle will also typically be pulling or (dragging) to either side (left or right). Thus the aim of the project is to analyze tie rod for active to improve the mass and buckling load of tie rod. The objectives of this study are to carry out the theoretical, experimental and modal analysis of tractor Tie rod to find different modes shapes by analysis FE software.

Keywords: Tie rod, buckling analysis, Compressive load, buckling load, Abaqus, Hyper mesh.
