5. AUTOMOTIVE PROJECTS
DEVELOPMENT OF THE LUGGAGE RACK SUPORTS
FOR VOLVO 8700 INTERCITY BUS
Year 2005
Implementation of the Finnish designed, aluminum casted, luggage rack supports in the 8700 series bus,
manufactured at VOLVO-BUS-POLAND was expensive in manufacturing costs and caused high vibration of racks.
PROJECT STAGES:
1) Recording vibrations
in the bus;
2) Analysis of recorded
data to establish
natural frequency
maping and
implementing results
into vibration FEA;
3) Designing PP+30GF
injection molded
brackets and checking
their stresses and
vibrations with FEA;
Result: Problem eliminated.
Magnetic force sensors placed
on the roof structure;
Optical engine rev. counter
in action;
Amplifiers and sound
recorder during tests;
Natural frequency

versions of brackets in
two materials: casted
aluminum E=7e4MPa
and polypropylene
„Nepol” E=9e3MPa
Natural vibrations restricted
modes [upper rails restrained]
Large brackets - material
polypropylene „Nepol”
E=9000MPa
Rack’s vibrations at 80-89Hz

6. AUTOMOTIVE PROJECTS
DEVELOPMENT OF THE FRONT END BODY PANEL
FOR VOLVO 8700 INTERCITY BUS
Years 2003 - 2004
Implementation of the Finnish designed composite front end panel of the 8700 series bus, manufactured at
VOLVO-BUS-POLAND caused fitting problems and windshield cracking in service.
PROJECT STAGES:
1) Measurement of the
torsional behavior
of the bus body
and windshield
opening;
2) Analysis of interactions
windshield-seal-body
panel; Resolution:
asymmetrical
windshield and
material shrinkage
undersized body panel
cause pressure
cracking of the
windshield.
3) Recommendation:
improved dimensional
stability of body
panels and gage
supported mounting
of the windshield.
Result: Problem
eliminated.
