Abstract

A transmission shaft is required to transfer power from the engine to the axle and drive wheel in a rear wheel drive vehicle. A composite shaft has many advantages: greater length compared to a metal shaft, improved mechanical properties, less noise, vibration and weight. By adjusting the resin composition and the fiber reinforcement pattern, the mechanical properties of the transmission shaft can be improved. Various options for modifying carbon and fiberglass plastics to improve the characteristics of the shaft are considered.
