Abstract
This paper deals with design and analysis of composite propeller shaft by replacing the conventional stainless steel with composite materials by using ANSYS. The materials which use in this analysis were E-glass epoxy, high strength carbon epoxy, and high modulus carbon epoxy. Conventional propeller shaft is a two piece steel propeller shaft in order to make it as a single long continuous shaft we are using composite materials. Static, model and buckling analysis on these materials is done by using ANSYS software.
