A Analytic, LLC

Excellence in Engineering Analysis

Assisted in the design of a "Brake Traction Trailer" for General Motors. A non-discloser agreement remains in effect.


Work on this product included:

  1. Preliminary stress analysis of the trailer chassis;

  2. Constructing a detailed solid model for three of its five main assemblies;

  3. Performing numerous design iterations on the solid model;

  4. Creating related assembly and manufacturing drawings; and

  5. Performed natural frequency analysis on the trailer.


General Motors has approved the design, and two trailers have been manufactured. The Firestone Tire & Rubber Company has purchased the second trailer. During preliminary tests, a problem with the loading mechanism was observed under certain conditions. Due to limited funds, our company was not asked to become involved with solving the problem.
