Numerical Analysis and Optimization of Passenger Car Drive Shaft
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 9
Abstract
The main objective of the drive shaft is reduction of weight of passenger car. Drive shaft is one of the most important parts of the vehicle which transfers the motion from gear box to the rear wheel of the vehicle. The drive shaft is connected by transmission shaft with the help of a universal joint. The drive shaft rotates about its own axis, the conventional shaft is made up of a steel-SM45C, in this project the use of Aluminium alloy, composite material are studied and analyzed. The 3D cad model of drive shaft is created by using the software CATIA V5. Then the component is discretised in HyperMesh pre-processor, to apply the loads and boundary conditions as a part of pre-processing activity. The pre-processed FE model is exported to the MSC NASTRAN software file format to run the analysis. The analysis done on drive shaft of Maruti Omini with different materials like aluminium and composite material, it is consisting of three types of analysis such as static, buckling and modal are carried out on the component to understand its behaviour under defined loading conditions.
