Photo Realistic Rendering

DESIGNING OF AMERICAN CHOPPER WITH PHOTO-REALISTIC RENDERING USING SOLID WORKS

OBJECTIVE:

The main objective of this project is to ideate for Design and AssembLy of an American Chopper using Solid works and photo realistic Rendering of AssembLy using photoview-360 and Solid works VisuaLize for understanding Mechanical Design process. Then Rendering is carried by adding proper decaLs, cameras, Lights and appearances.

INTRODUCTION:

In designing of any product first starts with an ideate and then convert these things into sketches by visualizing. Then these sketches are sent to designers for designing with proper dimensions by applying fundamentaLs of Engineering. These processes wiLL be carried out until the design satisfies the proper requirements of customer needs and design parameters. Then these are modeLLed using SoLid works by converting sketches into parts further these parts are joined together using Assembly for obtaining finaL product.

Solidworks is an 3D ModelLing Computer-aided design software developed by Dassault systems. It uses an principLe of 3d Parametric design and generates three kinds of interconnected fiLes: the part, the assembly, and the drawing. It heLps to perform easiLy ModeLLing by converting sketches(2D) to Parts(3D) easily using some Features. In Every part consists of sketches with appropriate dimensions using Required Geometries. Then by appLying Features which are nothing but required shapes to be formed based on sketches. ALL these parts are to be separated in a new foLder and then new assembly is seLected to insert in this environment. In AssembLy aLL these parts are assembLed together by applying mates to two different parts on basis of planes and some relations like coincident, parallel and concentric. Then separate foLder for mates is created to recognize easily reLation between two parts.

American chopper bikes are motor bicycles buiLt by Orange county choppers (0CC) for a specific corporate or celebrity customer. These bikes are motorcycLes in which the theme of the motorcycLe takes priority over everything eLse, influencing the frame dimensions, paint scheme, and overalL feeL of the motorcycle. The function of motorcycle usuaLly takes a backseat to the presentation of the theme, and these motorcycLes attract attention slowLy on the premise of the theme itself. Customer bikes are buiLt for and generalLy to the specifications of a particular customer. Although the customers typicaLLy give 0CC creative freedom to do what they will, some cLients have a specific idea in mind and expect 0CC to reproduce their mental picture Literally.

DESIGN APPROACH

DESIGN METHODOLOGY

a.) Transmission Belt:

The transmission beLt is one of the mechanicaL elements to transfer the power between two or more rotating shafts.It consists of an fLexible strip with mostly made of rubber material. The one side of beLt drive is connected to the engine where as other side is connected to wheeL for transmitting power. It also modifies rotary motion in a easy way. There are nearLy five types of beLts, but it is seLected on basis of requirements Like diameter of wheel, design power, corrected power rating, pitch Length and center Distance etc. In some cases, these drives are used for change the speed, either up or down by using different sized puLLeys.

These energies can be in a form of petroL or dieseL where a chemicaLs are used to produce energy. The chain of reactions which achieve the objectives is set in motion by spark, which ignites a mixture of petroL vapor and compressed air inside a cyLinder and causes it to burn rapidLy. It contains a cyLinder head contains vaLve-controLLed passage through which air and fueL mixture enters the cylinder. So due to this the engine must be a robust structure. The overaLL efficiency is around 35 percent. Some of the main parts included in Engine are piston, Camshaft, fLywheeL, crank shaft and connecting rods.
