The Generative Design and Analysis of a Formula One Race Car Chassis

Abstract

A general Formula One (F1) Racing Car chassis requires great strength to bear the damages caused due to the crash. So, our aim is to maximize the strength of the Formula One race car chassis by using Generative design so that it can overcome the crashing damages of shear and buckling of it by referring it to space frame chassis and performing the crash analysis on the chassis. In this undergraduate Research project, a Formula One race car will be designed using the CAD software Autodesk Fusion 360. In the design of the space frame chassis, all the dimensions are based on the standards laid down by Formula SAE rules (SAE International). Crash Analysis is done using ANSYS Workbench software.
