AB  - Drive shafts are the transmission components which transfer power from power source to required location. The connection may be between steering wheel and rack & pinion mechanism or gearbox to differential. As in gearbox to differential connection, operational conditions are harsh and high loads are generated, steel materials are mainly preferred to be used. Though steels have such advantages in cost, performance and durability, it is heavier compared to other engineering materials. Since international regulations dictate to decrease the carbon emissions rates due to global concerns, weight decrement of automobile components plays an important role in solving such problem. Considering the operational requirements and boundary conditions, weight reduction in steel parts might be tough. For this reason, alternative materials must be deeply investigated and implemented into the traditional technologies. In the scope of this study, fatigue and torsional strength of propeller shaft with composite tube and aluminum subcomponents were investigated.
