Dr.K.K.Dhande, Prof .N.I.Jamadar, Sandeep Ghatge

The modern automotive industries are replacing acceletor and clutch pedal by light weight materials such as polymer composites, plastic, aluminium and its alloys, etc. The purpose of replacement is reduction weight, cost, and improvement in corrosion resistance.In aviation; the steel material is replaced by light materials. In this study various lightweight materials are compared with conventional steel for brake pedal. These materials are analyzed for different sections for different loading and boundary conditions. The aim of this study is to design and analyse the brake pedal using CATIA and ANSYS software
