Abstract

The brake pedal is used to actuate the brakes of any normal car. It faces a very high load during intensive and repetitive braking. A brake pedal is required to be durable as well as have a low weight. The study is focused toward designing an optimized brake pedal having good durability and a considerable factor of safety along with the lowest weight. First, the brake pedal of Aluminum (7075 T6) is designed using a 3D modeling software (SolidWorks) and then the Finite Element Analysis is carried out to find the stresses induced when a load of 40 kg, i.e., 392 N acts. Once the results are determined for the solid pedal the pedal is then further optimized by removal of material in less stressed zones and analyzed appropriately.
