4.4.1 Stress in Motorcycle Chain Wheel
A motorcycle chain wheel as shown in the figure is
made from steel. The steel material has the Young’s modulus of
11
2
210 N m and Poisson’s ratio of 0.3. The chain wheel is
subjected to an applied torque at the center and the chain resistant
force along one side of the outer rim. The ANSYS file of this
problem can be downloaded from the book website.
