Abstract

In this study, an attempt was made to enhance the structural performance of universal joint using finite element analysis. A 3d geometry of universal joint was modeled in Catia v5 and performed static structural analysis on Ansys 14.0. A comparative analysis with original material of universal joint i.e. structural steel and replacement material which is berylliumcopper, was performed. It was found out by static solution of the analysis that berylliumcopper is suitable for manufacturing of universal joint since less total deformation for berylliumcopper when compared with the conventional material of universal joint i.e. structural steel was observed. The values of stresses and strains were found to be optimum as well. The weight was also observed to reduced applying beryllium copper as replacement material. These all contributed to increase the structural performance of universal joint.
