Front axle stablizer connection bracket design and static analysis

Computer-aided design methods bring convenience and flexibility to their design by allowing for the rapid modification of design elements and the time required for the design and analysis processes. In this study, the connection bracket of the anti-roll bar mounted on the vehicle was designed to ensure the balance of the axles used in heavy-duty vehicles (bus, truck) and strength analysis was made according to the loads it is exposed to. In the experimental study, various brackets were produced using different materials and different designs. These brackets are designed for use in midibus vehicles. These brackets, which act as a connection between the front axle and the anti-roll bar, are modeled using the finite element method to control the stresses that will occur as a result of applying a load to the bracket and to verify its suitability. According to the results obtained from the finite element static analysis, the stress values on the bracket as a result of the loads applied to the bracket were measured. According to these values, the bracket model with the best strength was selected and produced.
