“…It is noticeable that the use of titanium alloy yields the highest value of safety factor among other materials. The result is in line with the previous researchers (Pavlenko, Dvirnyk, & Przysowa, 2021;Salins, Mohan, & Stephen, 2021). The preliminary design made by titanium alloy has 6,28 of a safety factor value.…”

A lightweight component design contributes to the overall optimization of a system to be more effective and efficient. Then, it can lead to the contribution of a carbon footprint reduction. The research aimed to propose a novel lightweight brake lever design for motorcycle applications and numerically investigate its performance by comparing the proposed design with different utilized materials. The subject of the research was an optimized brake lever for motorcycle application. The materials used were aluminum alloy, structural steel, and titanium alloy. A Finite Element Method (FEM) analysis was employed to investigate the proposed brake lever design. Three proposed designs were introduced with the mass reduction in each optimization up to 50,9% of reduced mass. Maximum stress was observed on the most optimized design with a value of 297 MPa. The strain and total deformation were also investigated among the components. In the result, the stress-strain graph shows that the most optimized brake lever experiences the highest stress with the highest strain value. Furthermore, the highest safety factor is achieved with the utilization of titanium alloy, reaching the value of 6,28 for preliminary design and 3,1 for the most optimized component. However, the lightest component can be obtained using aluminum alloy.

This paper provides detailed insights into the external pressure vessels. External pressure vessels are designed to perform under extreme operating conditions, so the selection of material and geometry along with stress analysis are fundamental for their optimal efficiency. The objective of this research is to provide a case study of the material, design, and stress generated in the pressure vessel to make it suitable for thermal and load-bearing applications in the aerospace industry. An aluminum alloy was chosen as the design material due to its low density and high strength. The modeling geometry of the alloy was constructed using the ASME section-VIII division-I div code. After the performed Finite Element Analysis (FEA), modeling was carried out deploying the ANSYS design modeler to obtain the stress concentration and failure mode of the model. The present study demonstrates the behavior of a structure under applied load and identifies the weak areas of its geometry. Based on the external stress at the center of the structure, the maximum and minimum stresses computed are 0.763 MPa and 0.00803 MPa, respectively. It was also found that the maximum strain is generated at the center of the structure and is equal to 1.0834e-6 mm/mm, the maximum deformation is equal to 0.00109 mm and also occurred at the center, while the shells of the model are unable to undergo any deformation. FEA results agree with the analytical results, as the errors for hoop stress and equivalent strain are 4.8% and 1.8%, respectively. Thus, the proposed method can be applied to predict the equivalent stress, equivalent strain, total deformation, and stress intensity, which are required for the structural integrity analysis of pressure vessels.
