  • Au 81 Vechicl3e Body Engg Notes
    UNIT 1- CAR BODY DETAILS Cars can come in a large variety of different body styles . Some are still in production, while others are of historical interest only. These styles are largely (though not completely) independent of a car's classification in terms of price, size and intended broad market; the same car model might be available in multiple body styles (or model ranges ). For some of the following terms, especially relating to four-wheel drive / SUV models and minivan / MPV models, the distinction between body style and classification is particularly narrow. Please note that while each body style has a historical and technical definition, in common usage such definitions are often blurred. Over time, the common usage of each term evolves. For example, people often call 4-passenger sport coupés a "sports car", while purists will insist that a sports car by definition is limited to two-place vehicles. Body work In automotive engineering , the bodywork of an automobile is the structure which protects: ⦁ The occupants ⦁ Any other payload ⦁ The mechanical components. In vehicles with a separate frame or chassis , the term bodywork is normally applied to only the non-structural panels, including doors and other movable panels, but it may also be used more generally to include the structural components which support the mechanical components. Construction There are three main types of automotive bodywork: ⦁ The first automobiles were designs adapted in large part from horse-drawn carriages, and had body-on-frame construction with a wooden frame and wooden or metal body panels. Wooden-framed motor vehicles remain in production to this day, with many of the cars made by the Morgan Motor Company still having wooden structures underlying their bodywork.

    * * * A T T E N T I O N * * * --------------------- Individual Vehicle dimensions were obtained through the use of the Expert AutoStats(R) program. The Expert AutoStats(R) program contains a multitude of vehicle dimensions and specifications on over 47,000 different vehicles and 203 different manufacturers spanning more than 71 years. While every attempt has been made to ensure accurate data,these dimensions are meant to be used as first approximations. Some measurements are dependant on such factors as tire and rim sizes, tire inflation pressure and wear, suspension system condition, bumper type and style, and other manufacturing variations from vehicle to vehicle. Whenever feasible, the vehicle in question or an exemplar vehicle should be measured to verify data important to your case.

University of Nebraska, 2020 Advisor: Cody Stolle The Manual for Assessing Safety Hardware (MASH) requires full-scale crash testing of roadside features using worst practical impact conditions. Vehicle selection for full-scale crash testing is intended to be representative of the contemporary passenger vehicle fleet. Researchers at the Midwest Roadside Safety Facility (MwRSF) investigated attributes of passenger vehicle sales to determine if the vehicle selection criteria shown in MASH should be revised to accommodate changes in the vehicle fleet.

The Brand “DS” was inspired by the companies that were strictly concerned with modifying the machines coming directly from the factories by adding them aesthetic in terms of performance. This article is based on the research of Citroën cars, forgotten by many people, where the model “DS 19” will have appearance and proposal of more dynamic, innovative and modern design. Keywords: Citroën, DS 19, design, innovation, modern design. 1. Introduction This article derive from my PhD thesis which is the continuation of my passion, the result of my personal concerns in the direction of the car design, in terms of the exterior and interior appearance of the concept car. The way a car is presented is the result of an appropriate design process of a very complex study that includes aspects from very vast fields. Here, I did not want to highlight some standards by which we must invent something new, something revolutionary, I just followed my heart and intended to do something I think is important and necessary to make a significant contribution.
