Abstract

The automobile chassis is the backbone for the entire vehicle. A good chassis is one which absorb all the sudden loads, twist loads, shock loads without damaging the other parts which is placed on the chassis and provide the best ride and handling for the driver. Now the Indian automobile market is growing and so the demand for the light commercial vehicles. Small yet dynamic and reliable Commercial vehicles of about 1 ton load capacity are in demand. In general steel ladder type chassis is considered. It is found that there is sufficiently large value of stress and considerable amount of deformation is observed in the chassis structure and since there is a growth in demand for alternative materials to withstand such loads. In this paper alternate material and a design concept is proposed. Hence testing was conducted for all the material by Static structural analysis for Equivalent stress, displacement.
