Analytical Computation and Finite Element Analysis of Failure Criterion of a Composite Hollow Driveshaft Under Torsion

Abstract

ABSTRACT Drive shafts for power transmission are used in many applications, including machine tool, cooling towers, pumping sets, aerospace, and automobiles. In the metallic shaft design, the size of the shaft’s cross-section can be determined by the value of torque and the allowable shear stress of the material. There has been extensive work on the design of hollow composite drive shaft as per the literature survey. Many have focused on the optimization of design variables for a specific composite material. The difficulty is to understand the Torque (or speed) transmission, through the drive shaft which might fail due to instability over a longer period of operation. The relation between the failure of a driveshaft and the torque it transmits is to be investigated. This specific part of design, though attempted by many, has been attempted by using relatively optimization technique taking four to five different composite materials into consideration. Both numerical and analytical approaches in the past investigation are less and hence codification has been done to save design and optimization time by 50% over the numerical methods.
