Design and analysis of a composite drive shaft for an automobile

A hybrid aluminum/composite is an advanced composite material that consists of aluminum tube wound onto outside by layers of composite material. This project investigates the maximum torsion capacity of the hybrid aluminum/composite shaft for different winding angle, number of layers and stacking se...
