what would be the different types of loads acting on a bike frame, car driveshaft, ore truck driveshaft and a replacement hip.

as in cyclic, dynamics, static, tensile, compressive etc

thanks all

  1. On a bike it would be the weight of the rider. On the car driveshaft it would be the amount of tourque being applied. On the truck driveshaft I would assume it's the same, but check up on that. Replacement hip it is the person's weight meaning the amount of pressure the hip has to withstand.


  2. bike frame

    1) static - weight of the rider produces both force (compressive) and bending moments

    2) cyclic - fatigue in the bearing due to periodic force on the pedal

    3) dynamic - force on bearings due to road and transmitted by the tyre

    car drive-shaft

    1) static - twisting moment due to load the car has to carry

    2) dynamic - thrust on wheels due to road causing forced vibration; though suspension system takes most of this load

    3) cyclic - periodic force from piston in IC engines which results in periodic turning moment

    hip replacement (basically a ball and socket joint)

    1) static - weight of the person (compressive)

    2) periodic - during walking, running the force from ground transmitted by leg

    3) impact - sudden jerk, fall, rise up

    not much idea for the ore truck one
