The document discusses the design and analysis of a chassis for a solar electric vehicle. It begins with an introduction to solar vehicles and then describes the challenges in developing an effective solar car chassis, namely maximizing strength while minimizing weight. It then outlines the various types of chassis frames that were considered for the vehicle, including ladder, backbone, and monocoque frames. The design process is discussed, including considerations for ergonomics, dimensions based on a standardized anthropometric model, and using triangulation to increase torsional stiffness. A CAD model was generated and an analysis was performed using ANSYS software to simulate front, side, rear impacts and torsion. The final designed chassis was optimized for increased stiffness and strength.
