Abstract
This work explores the prospects of Generative Design to generate the single-sided swing-arm of a homologated motorcycle to perform the process of light-weighting by selecting two aluminum alloys, namely Al 6061 (primary) and Al 7075 (reference), as materials and 5-axis milling as the manufacturing method. This work also cites and summarizes a couple of previous studies to establish the findings that Al 7075 is a superior material for the manufacturing of the single-sided swing-arm when compared to steel and further proceeds to expatiate as to why Al 6061 should be considered as opposed to Al 7075 for increased gains from the process of light-weighting with substantiations from the analysis of the single-sided swing-arm under the simulated loads.
