DESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF A TWO SEATER ELECTRIC CAR

This paper describes the design, analysis and fabrication of a two seater electric car . The problem to be dealt for this thesis work is to design and analysis of the chassis frame using the software. The design modeling was prepared using Solid works and the analysis is carried out using Ansys. The chassis frame is considered as an overhanging beam with supports corresponding to front and rear wheels. The total load acting on the chassis is taken as the sum of the weight of the chassis frame, weight of the persons and the other components. This total load is considered as uniformly distributed load, its corresponding shear force and the bending moment diagram are drawn. bending stress, shear stress and deflection is calculated.
