Abstract

The chapter presents a meticulous analysis of the chassis strength for a compact city car designed to accommodate two passengers. It highlights the critical role of chassis design in ensuring driving stability, comfort, and overall vehicle performance. The study employs a numerical approach using ASTM A36 steel, focusing on two distinct load scenarios: focused and dispersed loads. The analysis reveals that the maximum stress under focused loads is 29.97 MPa, with a minimal displacement of 0.01239 mm, while dispersed loads result in a higher maximum stress of 108.10 MPa and a displacement of 1.798 mm. Both load conditions demonstrate a safety factor of 15, meeting the structural requirements for city cars. The chapter provides valuable insights into the structural integrity of city cars, making it an essential read for those interested in the design and performance of compact urban vehicles.
