        abstract = {This paper presents the stresses and deformations of the automotive single plate clutch depending on the applied materials. In design of the friction clutches of automobiles, knowledge on the thermo-elasticity a priori is very informative in the initial design stage. Especially, the precise prediction technique of maximum structural stress should be requested in design of mechanical clutches for their durability and compactness. Structural analysis of the clutch was performed by using the finite element method for a repressive vehicle example - TATA Sumo. First, the input data for the numerical analysis was calculated. Numerical analysis was performed in the ANSYS software package. As a result, the values of stresses and deformations that occur on the clutch during the vehicle exploitation are obtained. The present used material for friction disc is Cast Iron and aluminium alloys. In this thesis analysis is performed using composite materials. The composite materials are considered due to their high strength to weight ratio. In this thesis composite material kevlar and asbestos are taken. A single plate clutch is designed and modeled using Solidworks 2018 software. Static analysis is done on the clutch to determine stresses and deformations using materials Ceramic, cast iron alloy, asbestos, sintered metal, kevlar and cermet. Analysis is done in Ansys 2021(R1) version. Theoretical calculation are also done to determine stresses.},
