Strength Analysis Of Three Wheeled Vehicles Chassis And Body Frame Assembled In Ethiopia

Three-wheeled vehicles are becoming a popular and common means of short distance transportrnin Ethiopia. It is significant to know the current strength situation of three wheeled vehiclernframes to be confident on their load carrying capacity, service and use. They are antiquated,rnunsafe and highly polluting, so there is substantial room for improvement in this huge market. Arnnew three wheeled vehicle is designed, safer, more modern and easier to manufacture. This hadrnachieved by modeling and analyzing the existing three wheeled vehicle model and by modeling arnnew three wheeled vehicle that alleviate the shortcomings in the existing model using differentrnsoftware like CATIA AND ANSYS. The main thing done was changing semi-monocoque typernof the existing structure to a space frame. The result that we obtained was also such a better inrnstrength and stiffness, easy to manufacture and cost effective. The purpose of this project is torndocument procedural details of such remodeling, with a view to presenting more research andrndevelopment oriented investigations in the future. The contents of this report may also be ofrninteresting to practicing engineers engaged in prototype development and field testing of threernwheeled vehicles.
