Development Of Composite Materials For Rail Vehicle Body By Using Fem

This thesis work presents the development of composite materials for rail vehicle body by using rnFEM by considering steel material and bamboo fiber reinforced epoxy composite materials.rn rnThe Rail vehicle body of tram car model was used to develop the geometric model by Solid workrnR2017 modeling software. This 3D geometric model was imported to using ANSYS Workbenchrn15.0. The maximum operational load FEA was done after assigning displacement, load andrnboundary conditions. The equivalent stress and the displacement are noted and investigated torncompare with the literatures revised. The result of this analysis shows that, the equivalent stressrnof bamboo fiber reinforced epoxy composite Rail vehicle body has the smaller value, asrncompared with the steel material. Based on these realities, it is recommended that bamboo fiberrnreinforced with epoxy composite materials are suitable for Rail vehicle body structural analysis.
