Finite Element analysis tools offer the tremendous advantage of enabling design teams to consider virtually any molding option without incurring the expense associated with manufacturing and machine time. The Ability to try new designs or concepts on the computer gives the opportunity to eliminate problems before beginning production. Additionally, designers can quickly and easily determine the sensitivity of specific molding Parameters on the quality and production of the final part. The leaf

... pring model is created by modeling software like pro-E , Catia and it is imported in to the analysis software and the loading, boundary conditions are given to the imported model and result are evaluated by post processor. The different comparative results of steel leaf spring and composite leaf spring are obtained to predict the advantages of composite leaf spring for a vehicle. The model of composite leaf spring is prepared and analyzed using ANSYS14.5 for the deflection and stresses under defined loading condition. The experimental and FEA result compared for validation. The dimension of conventional leaf spring is taken with varying load and thickness for evaluation of result and Static analysis is performed.
