Abstrakt: Steel wheels often have a greater mass than aluminium or magnesium alloy wheels, which reduces their speed and steering responsiveness compared to steel wheels. In comparison to steel wheels, alloy wheels may reduce overall vehicle weight. Composite materials are being used in the automobile sector in order to decrease weight without affecting vehicle quality or reliability. Using less petrol and steering better is a well-established fact in the automobile industry. Aluminum alloy A356 and magnesium alloys AZ91E and AM60A will be proposed for use in the structure study of alloy wheels with 4, 5, or 6 spokes, respectively, as part of the project. The ANSYS software will be used to carry out the structural analysis. Existing data and reverse engineering methods are used to generate a four-wheel Alloy wheel model. IGES files are exported from Catia V5 software and imported into ANSYS Workbench for study of alloy wheel models. After that, the best-performing spokes and materials will be evaluated side by side.
