A study on the analysis and optimization of vehicle chassis

Abstract

In this paper, study of various Go-Karts has been summarized with its design and simulation for different impact tests like front, rear and side impact for multiple materials. This paper includes analysis of go-kart chassis done by some researchers and gives conclusion about different analysis done. Researchers used some software’s for design and analysis of go-kart chassis like CAD, SOLIDWORKS, ANSYS, and CATIA. The researchers also observed the collision test on go-kart chassis by applying suitable force. Some papers compared materials and design on chassis frame. They discuss on the fabrication using different manufacturing process of the go-kart chassis in the workshop. Some paper also focused on better flexibility of chassis and better driver ergonomics. They also did analysis and simulation on existing cars chassis and heavy vehicle chassis like bus. This paper tells us about designing and failure standard. The intention of the present examination aims to look for the ideal material for the chassis design by looking at the work done by various researchers. Analysis has been done on Carbon and Aluminium chassis. So, this paper presents a study and analysis on different material chassis with impacts on front, rear and side.
