The automotive industry is one of the largest consumer of flexible hoses for fluids such as fuel or cooling. In order to limit the post production costs, every aspect of a vehicle must be tested in advance, including the lifespan, durability or failure of hoses. Throughout this paper summary results are presented for 4 types of fuel line hoses tested under controlled displacement loads at various pressures in order to validate the Finite Element Method simulations.
