In this research, the design of the locomotive wheel is optimized considering hub radius and hub width as input parameters to DOE (Design of Experiments). Initially, finite element analysis is performed under static structural loading conditions to determine equivalent stress and safety factor, which is followed by design optimization using Response Surface Methodology. The software used for design and analysis is ANSYS.</p> Harmesh lal Copyright (c) 2024 Journal of Engineering Design and Analysis http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2024-10-28 2024-10-28 7 2 1 5
