    Author(s): Sneha V PawadeSneha V Pawade

    Railway system in India plays a vital role in transportation. The demand of prolong service life and reliability of the various component are always considered as critical issue. The component of the study has been obtained from the Central Railway, Electric Loco Shed Ajani Nagpur M.S India. In the present study the failure of one of the components of traction link (Pivot Housing) is carefully investigated. This paper presents theoretical and finite element analysis (FEA) results for the pivot housing assembly which predicts the failure load and determines ultimate failure strength. A significant result of these studies includes increasing the bending strength of Pivot Housing. The measured stresses were in good agreement with theoretical results. To get the additional insight, finite element.. View More»
