Abstract
Lightweighting of automobile vehicle is a significant application trends, using magnesium alloy wheels is a valuable way. This article discusses design of a new model of automobile wheel. Then bending test and radial test finite element model were established. Considering three different materials namely magnesium alloy, aluminium alloy and steel, the stress and strain performances of each material can be obtained. Through evaluating and analyzing model in bending test and radial test, we obtained the reasonable and superior results for magnesium alloy wheel. The results of the equivalent stress and deformation were compared, the magnesium alloy wheel practicality has been confirmed. This research predicts the reliability of the structural design, some valuable references are provided for the design and development of magnesium alloy wheel.
