Aim 0

The aim of the work is design, analysis and fabricate abicycle frame. To increase strength and reduce the weight of

bicycle .

34'ecties 0

we are selecting the three different materials and

analysis the properties for each material . Then we compare andselect the best one and fabricate the bicycle frame

,ntroduction

The bicycles are popular sports e(uipments .

! )i*cycle frame should ha&e low weight, high lateral

stiffness and moderate &ertical stiffness.

The frame of the bicycle is the main structure to supportthe e+ternal loads.

n the design process of the bicycle, the structural analysis

of frame or other parts are &ery important stage .

Traditional materials of the bicycle frame are the composite

materials are now widely used to make the bicycle frames and

we use carbon fiber, aluminum .

7once$t0 This paper deals with the stress analysis of bicycle frame /mild

steel0. The analysis is carried out in !"S#S and compared with

theoretical results. n theoretical analysis the frame is treated as

truss like structure and the stresses in &arious members of frame

like top tube, down tube are determined, considering &arious

condition like &ertical impact, horiontal impact. !lso !nalysis is

done considering the abo&e conditions.
