OVERVIEW

Design a lower control arm of an automotive suspension with 30% weight reduction using 6082-T6 forged aluminum alloy. Lightweight design failed performance requirements suggesting use of stiffer material with higher yield strength.

HighlightS

Evaluated stiffness and buckling performance of the lightweight design.
