Design and Analysis of SUPRA AISI 1018 Carbon Steel Car Frame Using ANSYS

Abstract:

In this competitive world, Speed is everything people are crazy on faster things. Speed is their passion either an automobile or any consumer appliances. The faster you get served better the returns expected. Economic value of automobiles is a factor which is dominated by the speed and pickup of the vehicle. In this project effort is made inDesigning and Analysis of the formula one race car chassis using ANSYS software. The Chassis is designed in Solid works, Meshingand Analysis is carried out in ANSYS. To enhance the speed and efficiency, aerodynamic modifications of the car profile is done and also to be float in a dynamic condition, weight is a vital parameter to be considered hence material change is also employed.
