Design Evaluation of a Bicycle Frame

You perform a design evaluation for a lugged bicycle frame model with surface bodies representing the head tube, top tube, seat tube, down tube, chain stays, and seat stays. You define several scenarios with different material properties and loading conditions, and evaluate the frame's static response.

In this tutorial, you learn to:

  • Link parameters to material properties.
  • Define material properties and loading conditions as Design Study variables.
  • Define the factor of safety and resultant displacement as Design Study constraints.
  • Evaluate different design scenarios.
