Typical leaf spring in heavy duty truck

Spring is a flexible mechanical element that can undergo significant amount of elastic deformation under the action of external loading. While experiencing elastic deflection, spring can absorb mechanical energy and store it within itself, which is subsequently released in a controlled way when it regains original shape and size. It has wide area of application starting from low-duty requirements (such as spring-operated ball point pen, self-closing door hinge, bike or
