Abstract: This paper deals with modeling and analysis of composite drive shaft by replacing the conventional stainless steel with composite materials. The materials which use in this analysis were E-glass epoxy, high strength carbon epoxy, and high modulus carbon epoxy.Conventional drive shaft is a two piece steel drive 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.
Keywords: E-glassepoxy, Specific modulus, Degrees of Freedom, Torque.
