FEA Analysis Project

Keltia was required to perform a Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of an automotive component to assess capacity to react applied torque. Three scenarios were analysed.

Results & Recommendations

After quickly identifying the key problems. Keltia made a number of recommendations which were incorporated into a new design. these included:

  • Increase the size of component features to reduce stress levels.
  • Reduce stress concentration at the transitions by increasing the corner radii, or other geometrical modifications.

Due to our NDA agreement with BorgWarner were are obligated to maintain confidentiality regarding this project.
