Finite Element Analysis of DF_4 Bogie Frame

Li Gang

Abstract

The bogie frame of diesel locomotive DF4 is welded by two side beams,two cross beams and two end beams into an entity.3D model of the frame is set up by software Pro/E,and Ansys,which is the finite element software,is used to to analyse the static strength of frame under the four loading cases.The results show that the strength and the stiffness of frame can meet requirements.
