Fatigue Life Analysis of Automotive Cast Iron Knuckle under Constant and Variable Amplitude Loading Conditions

The main aim of the present paper is to assess the fatigue lifetime of ductile cast iron knuckles as one of the critical components of an automotive steering system. To this end, a real driving path, including various maneuvers, such as acceleration, braking, cornering, and moving on various types o...
