Popis: | Present work deals with evaluation of stress, deflection and dynamic properties of the folded vehicle structure. The folded vehicle in present case is a single seat vehicle intended to carry one person. Design constraints are the folded dimensions of the vehicle and the maximum vehicle speed is limited to 15m/s. Using classical calculations dimensions of the vehicle are devised. Different materials are used for seat, telescopic support and chassis of the foldable vehicle. computer aided model is prepared using CATIA software. Finite element analysis of the foldable vehicle has been carried out to evaluate the static and dynamic stresses induced in the vehicle components. Meshing of the foldable vehicle is carried using Ansys Workbench. From modal analysis six mode shapes of the foldable vehicle are formulated, corresponding frequencies and deflections are devised. Mesh generator is used to mesh the foldable vehicle. The deflection and frequency magnitudes of foldable vehicle evaluated are in good agreement with the experimental results available in literature for similar materials. |
