Design Static and Dynamic Analysis and Weight Optimization of Car Chassis by Using Fea Method

Abstract

A chassis consists of an internal vehicle frame that supports a manmade object in its construction and use. An example of a chassis is the under part of a motor vehicle, consisting of the frame on which the body is mounted. If the running gear such as wheels and transmission, and sometimes even the driver's seat, are included, then the assembly is described as a rolling chassis.

Car chassis is a major component in a vehicle. In car chassis different type of failures are occur due to static loading condition. In this present work static load characteristics are analyzed using FE models from this work. It is found that identifying location of high stress area, displacement and strain. Modal updating of car chassis model will be done by adjusting the selective properties such as different materials. Thus modeling of a car chassis is done in solid works 2016 software and analysis is carried out in anasys workbench 14.5 software.
