Abstract |
|
The MSRTC bus structure has of Aluminum skeleton inside sheet metal, and it consists of vertical pillars and horizontal waist rails, portion between this is called as bay. This study focuses on basic structure with dynamic condition. The pillar and waist rail joint are connected by means of Aluminum riveted cleats to waist rail and bolted to pillar, so its mechanical strength is good in static condition but when vehicle faces situation like acceleration, deceleration, braking, overloading etc. Fails to remain rigid and riveted joints become loose. It is therefore necessary to modify it as it should be suitable for production as well as cost effective and at the same time sturdy. |
