When we want to incorporate FEA techniques in ouranalysis, we should consider ways to simplify our model. A bike frame has avery small thickness relative to its surface area. Therefore, we can analyzethe geometry using shells., v# d8 Q( B; ^
In SOLIDWORKS, shells are very easy to set up. With thehelp of the Shell Manager,surfaces can be given a thickness, material, offset type, and more within oneconvenient table.

Analysis (computational) times are much lower for shellsthan solid geometry.3 x( d( k3 K' H+ y! o/ V0 o7 o
Furthermore, laminar edges (coincident surfaces) aretreated as bonded, so there is no need to worry about knitting your surfacesbefore starting your analysis.

To find out, I ran astatic analysis to see if there was any noticeable effect on the frame’sstiffness.( g; R, L1 {. Y* C/ B
The main forces applied to the bike are torsional andlateral forces. Therefore, we can limit our analysis to torsional and lateralstiffness.; B6 c/ j* I3 p+ Z& k" P3 [

These are simplified definitions for a body with onedegree of freedom. This can be applied to our case by analyzing the resultantdeflection in the direction of the applied force as long as one force isapplied at a time for each analysis.. Y% \0 W9 _0 u/ I# G6 r
First, let’s look at the torsional stiffness. In order tocalculate torsional stiffness (for the Head Tube) we can create a resultantplot of the circumferential deflection about the Head Tube Axis (HT AXIS).9 ~( U) ?5 S& c7 X7 S1 h

By taking advantage of the extra spaceon the non-drive side, I was able to increase the lateral stiffness of theframe by 11%.
In the next part, I will furtherimprove the performance of the frame design by using CFD (computational fluiddynamics) analysis to optimize for aerodynamic performance.

這篇文章給人印象深刻的不是分析,,而是自行車架的3D草圖,。不要抱怨軟件如何如何,還是多檢討自己吧,。
