Figure 28
The illustration presents a top-down finite element analysis of the double-slotted composite structure, depicting the Von Mises stress distribution. The geometry features symmetric rectangular arrangements, with dual central slots of square and rectangular cutouts and peripheral mounting holes. The majority of the component is colored red, representing high-stress regions. Blue and green areas denote lower stress, concentrated mainly in the slot interiors and outer corners. It highlights stress concentrations in red along the slot edges and end faces in the double-slotted design. The vertical color scale bar on the right ranges from 0.1 times 10 to the 7th power (blue) at the bottom to 1 times 10 to the 7th power (red) at the top. Axes x, y, and z are labeled in the left corner of the image. The horizontal axis extending left is labeled x and ranges from 0 to 400 millimeters with an interval of 200 millimeters. The vertical (y) axis on the right ranges from 1.07 times 10 to the 4th power to 5.75 times 10 to the 8th power (Newtons per square meter). The z-axis from the top front to inside the plan ranges from 0 to 100 millimeters. Grid lines and axis ticks are visible at the top and on the left side.Von mises of the double-slotted composite sensor located directly above the right axle sensor. Source(s): Authors’ own work
