A Study of a Volvo CE Articulated Hauler’s Hydraulic Tank : Validation of a Finite-Element Model Taking the Fluid-Structure Interaction into Account

This scientific work is dedicated to the study of the impact of vibrations on the Volvo A60 articulated hauler’s hydraulic tank taking fluid-structure interaction into account. In this work, a theoretical background is presented in order to give the reader a basic awareness of the given problem together with a detailed description of the methods used during the examination of the above mentioned hydraulic tank. To perform an analysis of the finite-element model, ANSYS software was used while ANSA and META were used as the pre- and post-processor. Matlab was used in order to compare the obtained data. As a result of the analysis, this work provides a simplified and yet accurate model and a description of some of the minor problems present in the original Volvo CE model. In order to solve those issues, solutions are proposed.
