Drivetrain System Vibration Analysis
For the drivetrain system, various parts on the car experience constant vibrations and loads. When designing these parts, the focus was placed on harmonic failure and fatigue failure. These analyses were performed using ANSYS Mechanical. Images show the sprocket and driveshaft going through harmonic analysis, as well as hand calculations of modal analysis, harmonic responses, and critical speeds for the driveshafts.

Key Features
- ANSYS Mechanical Simulations: Harmonic analysis and fatigue failure assessments of drivetrain components.
- Modal Analysis: Hand calculations performed for determining natural frequencies and vibration modes.
- Harmonic Response Analysis: Analyzed the response of drivetrain components under varying frequencies.
- Critical Speeds: Calculated critical speeds of the driveshaft to avoid resonance and potential failure.
Applications and Benefits
The drivetrain system's vibration analysis ensures that all components can handle the stresses and vibrations encountered during operation. By performing harmonic analysis and modal analysis, potential failures due to resonance or fatigue are mitigated. This improves the overall reliability and longevity of drivetrain components, ensuring a safe and durable system for high-performance vehicles.
