Vibrational Analysis of All Terrain Bike [ATB] using FEM

Aishwary Mendke | Suman Sharma ^[18]

Abstract: Bicycles continue to be eliminate mode of transport for middle income families. This is because the bicycle is environment but required more people efforts. India is the largest producer of bicycles. Considering the rising fuels cost and pollution, the bicycle is considered ideal. These can be maintained at low costs. Since their inception bicycles have provided society with a good source of transportation, exercise which is good for human body, recreation and sport. New bicycle frames are generally motivated by weight and often incorporate the use of high performance materials. Energy is expended for propulsion and elastic deformation of the frame. Therefore a minimization of frames total mass and deflection are essential. Most modern bicycle frames have simple form e. g. diamond shaped frame it was in 1895 after several remained basically unchanged since that time. The need for low load coupled with high strength has led to continuing trail and development of excellent materials for racing bicycles The solution to the pertaining problem is to switch to the most reliable and a proven tool of structural engineering, the Finite Element Method (FEM).
