Bus Durability Constraints

Hi,

 

I am trying to make durability analysis for a bus. I have the forces acting from suspension system to the body. I am applying these forces using inertia relief. However the stress values I am getting are really low.

 

I thought maybe Inertia relief is not the best choice. Does anyone has an idea?

 

Thanks in advance.

    Hi,

     

    whats the reality? I think the bus isn't flying, or?

    So maybe you can use boundary conditions and have to generate your load through real loads (masspoints, density & gravitiy load).

     

    Regards,

    Mario

    I think I need to define all the masses on the bus. It is crucial for the inertias. Thank you Mario.
