Design of Car Body Surface & Stiffness Analysis on Surface

Abstract

In order to employ this model, the team decided to divide the knowledge base as efficiently as possible, by creating experts in different automobile segments. These segments included propulsion technologies; vehicle dimensions, body styles, aerodynamics design.To aid in the design of the concept, external research on customer buying habits was required. we also believed that it would be extremely beneficial to sit down with a design expert in the automotive industry and learn how they develop their customer needs and vehicle concept ideas. The next step in our design process was to develop a list of competitors that target the same base as our vehicle, thus giving us the chance to benchmark one of these competitors. The car that was benchmarked was the nexis. This was done due to the similarities in size and power train between the sports car and our concept.
