When we want to incorporate FEA techniques in ouranalysis, we should consider ways to simplify our model. A bike frame has avery small thickness relative to its surface area. Therefore, we can analyzethe geometry using shells.

Analysis (computational) times are much lower for shellsthan solid geometry.

To find out, I ran astatic analysis to see if there was any noticeable effect on the frame’sstiffness.

These are simplified definitions for a body with onedegree of freedom. This can be applied to our case by analyzing the resultantdeflection in the direction of the applied force as long as one force isapplied at a time for each analysis.7 d) z z' W: {1 b& x
First, let’s look at the torsional stiffness. In order tocalculate torsional stiffness (for the Head Tube) we can create a resultantplot of the circumferential deflection about the Head Tube Axis (HT AXIS).

By taking advantage of the extra spaceon the non-drive side, I was able to increase the lateral stiffness of theframe by 11%.
In the next part, I will furtherimprove the performance of the frame design by using CFD (computational fluiddynamics) analysis to optimize for aerodynamic performance.
