Abstract

This work contains the design and analysis of the brake pedal for a Formula 3 Vehicle. different ‘Engineering Software’ like SOLIDWORK and ANSYS are utilized for the analysis of brake pedal, considering the structural aspects. s. In this work, every progression of the design was assessed and all the results of the analysis have been interpreted. Finite element analysis has provided a lot of new opportunities for the development of new components and it saves a lot of time and expenditure on the proof of concept. Popular finite element software is ANSYS, ABACUS, etc. This software is proved to give an almost accurate solution. However, these results are considered to be approximate results. In the current research paper, Static structural analysis of a brake pedal is presented using ANSYS. It is specially designed and used for an F3 Vehicle. It has features like weight optimization and sufficient stiffness to absorb all the forces acting on it. The result has been compared with different meshed models like tetrahedron, hexahedron and the combination of both and the comparative analysis has been reported. It is observed that there is a significant difference in stress, deformation based on the mesh, however, the stress and deformation are within the limits. Hence, this research paper will be helpful in the future for predictive analysis.
