Abstract

With technological developments and carbon emission reaching dangerous levels in the world, it is inevitable that electric vehicles will become the dominant transpor-tation technology of the future. Studies involving electric vehicles have become very popular today. In the automotive sector, sectoral dynamics and needs are rapidly changing; restrictions and demands are bound by strict rules and high value-added innovative studies are applied intensively. Supporting this area with academic data will contribute to R&D activities in this field. In this study, analysis and production studies have been performed on a 3-wheeled vehicle chassis driven by electric energy. The chassis structure is designed has been analyzed. The chassis aimed to be pro-duced as a result of the study was analyzed in detail according to brake, modal and cornering analysis. As a result of these analyses, It has been found that this chassis has a reliable structure according to the specified driving dynamics parameters. By adopting new requirements, technologies and analysis outputs to the system, a modular platform structure that can be used for varies applications were created. The design and production processes of an innovative and applicable chassis structure for the electric vehicle ecosystem are given in detail.

Highlights

  • Introduction these predictionsToday, a significant part of the world's energy needs is met byThe number of electric vehicles in Turkey is approximately fossil energy sources such as coal, natural gas and oil

  • NEDC cycle test, dynamic acceleration test and static navigation test completed in a four-wheel-drive chassis dynamometer at the China Automotive Engineering Research Institute Power transmission system configuration design, control strategy and fuel economy of the vehicle were analyzed and the results showed that the serial-parallel configuration had the potential to reduce transmission mechanical losses and that serial operating mode tended to be more efficient in most operating conditions [15]

  • Modal analysis was first made before these analyses were carried out in the software environment

Summary

The Design of Multi-Purpose Electric Vehicle Chassis

Engineering design is an approach in which basic concepts such as functionality, reliability, manufacturability, usability, and cost of the resulting product are dealt with [34]. Lithium-ion-based batteries have a high energy and power density, which is the type of battery that global electric vehicle manufacturers such as Tesla, AUDI and Volkswagen benefit from in solving range-weight problems. The forces acting on the chassis; The effects of the driver, passengers and / or load, battery, engine weights and braking acceleration planned to be transported in the trailer part were considered in the chassis analysis. As a result of this analysis, it was observed that the value stress and total deformation values examined were low This showed that the vehicle will remain intact when it enters a sharp corner, and permanent deformations will not occur on the car chassis. MIG-MAG welding type was preferred because it was fast and its cost was lower than the other methods, see Figure 20
