Abstract
The motivation behind the vehicle wheel rim is to give a firm base to fit the tire. Its dimensions and shape should be suitable to adequately accommodate the particular tire required for the vehicle. Design is an important industrial activity which influences the quality of the product. The present work focuses on the design of wheel rim and to analyze for optimum shape and dimensions. The design of the rim will carried out using CREO (modelling software) and ANSYS solver mode is used to analyze the design and calculate the stresses, deflections, bending moments and their relations. Also static structural analysis has been carried out and the performance of the rim has been checked in dynamic analysis. At present literature is being reviewed to identify the existing gaps in order to carry forward to the proposed work by filling those gaps. Change of material (as well as compositions) and topology is
under study.
