|
Vehicle safety is an important factor during design and development of any automobile. There are several components which make an automobile and each component has its own functionality and importance. In the same way there are many accessories which are required to be used along with the vehicle. One such accessory is skid plate which is very much essential for off-road vehicles. In this paper, a NPD approach is used to develop a skid plate for safeguarding the propeller shaft. To design and develop skid plate, a survey has been carried out to know the necessity of skid plate. From concept generation and selection, 2 feasible concepts were selected for FEA and static structural analysis has been carried out for UDL of 1400lbf and then for various loading conditions. From comparison of results, a feasible concept is recommended for prototyping. |
