Comparative Impact Analysis of Tubular, Monocoque and Hybrid Occupant Structures for a Lightweight Two-Seat Vehicle Ended

About the job

A comparative structural impact study of three lightweight occupant-cell concepts for a small urban vehicle:
1. Tubular frame (aluminium)
2. Monocoque frame (preferably carbon fibre or maybe polyurethane like foam filled stuff)
3. Hybrid redesign based on the weaknesses found in 1 and 2
The occupants are side-by-side in every case.
The impact speed is 28 mph (45 km/h) in every case.
The impact conditions are:
• frontal impact
• side impact
The purpose is to find which concept gives the best occupant protection for a lightweight design.
