The Analysis for Casting Axle Cover Leakage

To solve the problem of oil leakage of connection between casting housing and the rear cover, using finite element method to simulate the position that most probability leak, and then give the advises to the designer. Firstly using Hypermesh to mesh all the part from the axle and set interface and then exports the inp file. Secondly use the Python language to set the load step. Thirdly use the Dos window to invoke the standard of ABAQUS solver to calculate. Compare the calculation results with the actual failure, so as to put forward a more reasonable design change.
