Abstract

This study investigates stress and deformation due to static and dynamic vibration analysis about various types of bike handles installed with smart phone depositories. When force is applied on the side of handle at the models of type 1, 2, 3 and 4, the maximum equivalent stress is highest at type 2. The stress or deformation becomes lowest among these 4 model types. At vibration analysis, type 1 becomes safest within the range of 500Hz and type 3 becomes stable within the range of 100Hz. The result of this study can be applied with the design of bike handle installed with smart phone depository. The damage or deformation due to vibration can be prevented when the bike falls down. This result can be widely utilized to investigate and predict the durability.
