Abstract

Springs are used in automobile applications as they expand in size when loaded and regain its original shape when removed. They also absorb vibrations, shocks and loads utilizing damping, they absorb the energy in the form of potential energy. Springs’ capacity to absorb and store more strain energy makes the suspension system more comfortable. Conventional spring and parabolic springs are widely utilized springs and are currently the topic of research because of their applications and capabilities. In present scenario in automobile industry spring are getting replaced by the composite spring. Literature reveals that composites are being used widely in place of conventional material because of their absorbing capability. Literature also reveals that conventional leaf springs are getting replaced by parabolic springs. Present paper discusses the parabolic leaf spring, materials of the springs and its modelling. Composite materials like epoxy, E-glass, GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) etc. are the combination of two or more materials. A wide amount of study has been conducted in this paper to investigate the design and analysis of parabolic spring. A parabolic spring has also been designed in the present paper.Cite this ArticleShubham Singh, Arun Singh Kushwah.Comparative Study of Parabolic LeafSpring and Different Materials.
