Lightweight Design of Tanker of LPG Truck Based on Material Strength Equivalent Substitution

Article Preview

Abstract:

general steel of the original tanker of LPG truck is substitute by high strength steel in order to reduce the weight of tanker. Then strength and stiffness of new tanker is calculated, the result shows that strength and stiffness of new tanker satisfies safety requirement.
