ABSTRACT
In this thesis an investigation is carried out on Composite Drive Shaft for different Stacking Sequence and for
different fiber angle orientation. A one-piece drive shaft for rear wheel drive automobile was designed optimally
using E-Glass/Epoxy and High modulus (HM) Carbon/Epoxy composites. In this thesis an Analytical and ANSYS
Software has been successfully applied to minimize the weight of shaft which is subjected to the constraints such as
torque transmission, Static Structural capacities, Torsional Buckling Torque. The results of Analytical Analysis are
used to perform static analysis using ANSYS software. The results show the stacking sequence and fiber angle
orientation of shaft strongly affects static strength as well as the Buckling Capacity of shaft. It is possible to
optimize the 83% weight than the Steel Shaft and 43% weight than the Aluminum Shaft in case of Composite Shaft.
Keywords: - E-Glass/Epoxy, ANSYS |
