Abstract
Design and analysis of Buggy roll cage commonly used as a recreational vehicle on off road terrains have been studied. These vehicles are usually modified from their existing design to provide performance and safety. In this research paper, an attempt has been made to design a roll cage for a buggy considering different members of the roll cage. In this context roll cage has been drawn on solid works CAD software and has been analyzed using finite analysis by applying the different boundary conditions. The roll cage has been designed considering the AISI 4130 steel and carbon fiber considering five cases such as front impact, side impact, rear impact, drop test and roll over test to ensure safety of the operator to survive the impact scenario. The main significance of this study is to analyze buggy role cage from safety point of view of operator. From these results it can be concluded that carbon fiber roll cage is also one of the promising alternatives for roll cage design and can be recommended from safety point of view.
