Alloy wheels are automobile wheels which are made from an alloy of aluminium or magnesium metals or sometimes a mixture of both. Alloy wheels differ from normal steel wheels because of their lighter weight, which improves the steering and the speed of the car. Alloy wheels will reduce the unstrung weight of a vehicle compared to one fitted with standard steel wheels. The aim of the project is to suggest a new composite material Magnesium AZ91E-2%Al2O3 to the alloy wheels and evaluate its performance by performing the static & fatigue analysis and the results were compared with aluminiumA356 and magnesiumAM60A alloy materials. In this project three different parametric models are designed for Alloy wheel used in four-wheeler by collecting data from reverse engineering process from existing model. Alloy wheel models are designed in Autodesk Inventor14.0 software, then converted into IGES format and imported into ANSYS Workbench for analysis. The analysis was carried on three models to find the best one. Static analysis was carried out for finding the deformation and stress/strain results, Fatigue analysis under radial load was carried out and generating the S-N curves, by using S-N curve we predict the life of alloy wheel and factor of safety.
