Abstract

One of the essential parts of an auto vehicle is an engine mounting bracket, which helps in mounting the engine on the chassis. This paper analyses and compares the existing bracket design of one of the famous three-wheeler of Scooter India limited named as Vikram 750 D with five new alternative models using finite element analysis. In the first part, linear structural finite element analysis of engine mounting bracket of the existing design was carried out to determine the maximum stresses and deformations in the existing model and then identical analysis was conducted for five proposed models of the mounting brackets. The maximum stresses and deformations of the proposed models were compared with that of the existing model to identify a better design. The weight of the existing model and five proposed model were also compared to obtain an optimal design.
