Abstract

A brake pedal is a significant pedal after the acceleration pedal as it is used in controlling the vehicle’s speed. An optimized brake pedal is designed to improve the design and other parameters. FEA analysis shows that several test cycles are performed very well. In this paper, an analysis of the design of the brake pedal of a vehicle and testing the strength of the brake pedal are performed and tested according to the criterion. Brake pedal models are designed and constructed using SolidWorks 2018 software. Aluminum alloy is selected as the material for analysis. It is concluded that aluminum is good for the vehicle brake pedal at the beginning of the test. The test is performed on the pedal physical as well as internal buildup characteristics in the material as well as in the design. This study reveals more strength and durability in design with material placed at the required location.
