Hi

I am trying to do stress analysis in a front wheel hub. I would like to know what are the loads that will possibly be acting on the wheel hub under the following cases
1. straight line braking
2. Cornering
3. Bump

Weight of the car is 600lb

Need ur help guys

How much grip can you develop with your tires?

I've used a 5g load case of the unsprung mass for bumps combined with a conservative lateral/longitudinal loading.
