Modeling and Analysis of Composite Drive Shaft for an Automobile

B. Srinivas, Samudrala Venkata Sanjeev Kumar

Abstract


The design optimization also showed significant potential improvement in the performance of drive shaft. In this present work an attempt has been to estimate the deflection, stresses, natural frequencies under subjected loads using FEA. Further comparison carried out for alclad aluminum alloy materials and weight of the shaft is optimized and stress intensity factor found for both Steel and composite drive shafts.
