Design and Finite Element Analysis of Go-Kart Tubular Chassis using AnsysBy Ajith K, Manujesh B J, Varun Kumar, Hithesh O
Abstract: Abstract:- The design of a go-kart chassis involves vehicle’s performance, safety, and handling characteristics. The present work focuses on the conceptual design, modelling, and structural analysis of a Go-Kart chassis aimed at achieving an optimal balance between strength, weight, and driver comfort using FEA software Ansys. A detailed chassis model was developed based on ergonomic considerations and racing standards. The design was evaluated through FEM approach to assess stress distribution, …

Characterization of AL-2014 TIG Welded JointsBy Manujesh B J, Prashanth Pai M, Amil Azeez, Mohammed Saleem, Nithin M. K, C. V. Pujar
Abstract: Abstract – This experimental study presents a comprehensive investigation into the tensile strength of TIG-welded butt joints made from Al-2014 alloy, a material that find applications in aerospace and structural engineering due to its excellent machinability and high strength to weight ratio. Welding Al-2014 alloy is challenging because it is more prone to hot cracking, oxide layer formation and thermal distortion. Therefore, it is very important to optimize welding parameters …
