For analysing various dynamic parameters like natural frequency, maximum stress analysis and deformation of a tie rod, the FEA analysis of a typical tie rod is carried out. Different causes of tie rod failure are the fluctuating forces during steering and bumping of the vehicle. When vehicle is in static condition, steering forces are also considered for analysis. Two major types of tie rod failure are vibration and fatigue failure if the resulting vibrations are severe and greater than previously estimated.In this paper, a systematic study is carried out to understand the structural characteristics and its dynamic behaviour. This study mainly focuses on FEA analysis of a typical tie rod and determining its natural frequency by changing materials. And using this analysis for selecting a specific material which optimizes the weight of the tie rod without compromising its functional parameters.
