This publication aims to provide to the designer a method for sizing, as first approximation, of upper mount cabin shock-absorber. It determines some possible geometries, then it uses the Finite Elements Analysis and the low cycle fatigue approach to choose possible solutions. As final step, it compares the theoretical solution with low cycle fatigue bench test results. The method has been developed starting from the need of reduction of conceptual validation timing and as such it should be treated.
