Bike Frame Structural Analysis with FEM

[@Prabh_Dhillon1993]

Can you pls explain what are boundary conditions for braking and irregularities?

[@tomruediger8559]

In ISO4210 the horizontal front load is described with a mass that is falling from a specific height on the front axle of the bicycle but not as a force. How did you come up with the 2x1000N of force acting on the axle?

[@vanishrilalsangi1559]

if I have two valid results after running fea analysis where both do not cross the yield strength then how to choose the right answer and why to chose that particular answer

[@黃冠傑-v3t]

Nice performance, very detail.

[@aminegc9353]

Is there any standards or codes to design and concept the bikes according to that codes? standards dimensions and all details please ????

[@jacopobilotto9221]

If I put two cilindrical constraints at the rear of the chain stay and a vertical support on the front tube, and apply a vertical downward force at the sit, should I expect the front tube to displace away from the sit or to come closer? My geometry is very similar to yours, a classical safety diamond shaped frame

[@evotechcaeltd1583]

Is it possible to consider 1) a composite frame, with a discrete ply/laminate definition (based on classical laminate theory), and 2) transient impact analysis based on an initial velocity (such as the ISO4210 physical test definition)?

Very nice

Why do you use a 3d mesh instead of a 2d with less elements?

[@JousefM]

You could but we only offer 3D elements at the moment. We already saved some time by using half the model though as you have seen :)

[@ramachandransankar750]

Braking what is the load calculated

[@JousefM]

Playback speed 1.75. works good

@26.29 with the lower position Seat stay - you can see more stress in the Seat tube compared to traditional design high mounted seat stay connected at seal collar . i think the newer Design is Retarded and just MARKETING BS to sell more bikes to the MINIONS !!!!!!!!!!! No Added Beneft + a HARSHER RIDE !!!!!!!!!!! Since the SEAT STAYS are SHORTER
