Questions

Problem Statement
1. The comfort of the driver to
move the shoulder
degraded due to limited
space at the drivers room.
2. Bodywork department need
higher rear frame for
making rear body skin which
will cover up the top of the
engine.
3. Position of the frontal
support disturbing the drive
shaft installation.

Our goals for functional validation:

Decrease the chassis weight.

Maintain the strength and rigidity.
Enable all others system installation.
Reduction to the lowest cost possible

Problem solution
The driver seat area is modified to give more spaces for
the driver. The analysis is re-test by using finite element
analysis
The rear structure is modified accordingly to the engine
size and bodywork dimension

Key design aspects

Safety, Strength and Rigidity

Drivers Comfort
System Assembly

Manufacturing

Conventional metal cutting machine is used to cutting the beam into

desired length.
Tolerance must be counted

Manufacturing

Gas Metal Arc Welding(GMAW) equipment is used for joining of the

beam.
Carbon dioxide gas

Design Changes

Many updates since last semester, mostly small.

Design Changes

Structural FEA Re-test

Finite element analysis is perform for the latest design

Testing: Summary

Based on all the finite element analysis that were done, our
chassis have high strength and are able to withstand external
force acted on the structure.
The Von Mises stress generated is less then the yield strength
of material

Design Validation:

Performance Clear success for floating, fixed needs

more testing
Weight Lighter
Cost
Modularity means significant savings
Cost details on next page

Balance Somewhat of a failure here

Fit OEM components Drove the design at many points. A
success overall.

Budget Results:

Total cost :RM 90

The total length of the beam :19m

Conclusion: Areas of Success

Overall everything turned out pretty well in terms of:

Low cost
Ease assembly of systems.
Original design goals relatively well validated by supervisor
Made updates for latest designs.

Conclusion: Acknowledgements

Thank you to En Abdul Hakim Abdullah

And thanks to everyone whos helped us through these
past few years
