In this paper, an automobile drive shaft is designed using ANSYS ACP workbench and analysis performed using ANSYS static structural workbench. Analysis preformed on 4 different materials which includes conventional structural steel and 3 different composite materials. E glass/ Epoxy, High strength Carbon Epoxy (230GPA) and High Modulus Carbon Epoxy (395GPA). Results are compared and conclude High strength carbon is the optimum material for manufacturing the automobile drive shaft.
