SYNOPSIS
Introduction:
Now days, heavy vehicles (particularly Lorries and buses) causes more vibration in
rear wheel. Already in all vehicles leaf spring is provided to reduce vibration, by continuation we
are going to introduce shock absorber in the vehicles. This is design oriented project.

Objective of the Project:

 Its main objective is to introduce damping in between ground force and
weight of the vehicle
 To design the spring in the shock absorber which can withstand higher load,
ground force and vibrating force.
 Mainly to avoid oscillation motion in the rear wheel.

Scope of the Project:

 It reduces oscillatory force
 It increases the damping force to avoid vibration
 Comparing to leaf spring the effect of shock absorber is higher

Brief Methodology:
There is oscillation in between ground and weight of the vehicle. To avoid this vibration, shock
absorber is designed to provide damping force in between ground and the weight of the vehicle.
The design based on the subject called strength of materials and production drawing is prepared in
AUTOCAD 2010

Expected Outcome:
 Reduction of vibration in vehicle
 More comfort for traveling as well as export and import of products.
