Numerical Study of Reinforced Aluminum Composites for Steering Knuckles in Last-Mile Electric Vehicles

The steering knuckle is a critical component of the suspension and steering drive systems of electric vehicles. The electrification of last-mile vehicles presents a challenge in terms of cost, driving range and compensation of battery weight. This work presents a numerical methodology to evaluate 60...
