DESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF GRIDS
FOR STRENGTH ENHANCEMENT OF METAL SHEETS
USED IN SPACE VEHICLES

A grid is hollow shape carved in metal sheets in order to increase the

strength, uniform load sharing and decrease the weight of the material.

Since in early 90s Finite element analysis of isogrid (triangular) was

easy and convenient through software it was used in space vehicles.
Now as the FEA tools have advanced we can make orthogrids and
hexagonal grids for better strength.

Since orthogrids and hexagonal grids will have more sides the load
sharing capacity will increase. Also we can study the interaction of
heat with different structures as these metal sheets are also used in
rocket boosters.

“We will design and analyze isogrid,orthogrid and hexagonal grid,

then we will select the most appropriate one for space applications”

Design and analysis of engine block

The analysis of the engine block is carried out to predict

it’s behaviour under static and dynamic load. The cylinder
block has to withstand stress and deformation acting on it.

STATIC ANALYSIS OF LEAF SPRING
(using ANSYS)
Leaf springs are used in automobile suspension
systems.The main function of leaf spring is not only to
support vertical load but also to isolate road induced
vibrations.Static analysis of leaf spring determines the safe
stress and corresponding load of the spring.
Leaf spring used in many vehicles due to having some
main characteristics like uniformly load distribution,rough
used,Easier in isolation and tightly attached with working
frame.
In this paper I would like to review some previous
research work performed on the leaf spring by previous
researchers for increasing the working condition and
capacity with load reduction.
