  • The Role of LS-DYNA® in the Design of the New London Electric Taxi
    15th International LS-DYNA® Users Conference Automotive The Role of LS-DYNA® in the Design of the New London Electric Taxi Jamie Dennis1, Simon Hart1 1Arup (Advanced Technology and Research), Solihull, UK Abstract The iconic London taxi is known worldwide. The London Taxi Company (LTC) has produced this much loved vehicle for many years with few radical changes. Recently, zero-emission legislation in London and the global demand for cleaner vehicles has prompted an evolution in its design. With investment from owner Geely, the newly branded London EV Company (LEVC) will produce several thousand electric taxis per year from its new headquarters in Coventry, UK. The designers, Emerald Automotive Design (EAD), engaged Arup to analyse all structural and safety load cases. This paper discusses how the versatility of LS-DYNA and the modularity of the keyword file enabled Arup to use a single-model approach for all analysis - from full vehicle crashworthiness through to component- level durability checks - and how this facilitated an efficient division of activity between remote teams in the UK and China. The application of both explicit and implicit LS-DYNA to the various load cases is considered, together with the correlation against physical testing. Special challenges were posed by the requirement to comply with Transport for London’s (TfL) Conditions of Fitness and the need to protect the high-voltage components. Reliance on the LS-DYNA predictions was high, with few prototype stages afforded by the accelerated programme. Successful progression directly from simulation to legislative testing sign-off was achieved for cases including pedestrian protection. Arup’s use of LS-DYNA was key in bringing this lightweight bonded aluminium taxi to market, whilst minimising energy consumption and delivering a solution to the issue of sustainable city transport.

Current vehicles are not satisfactory in terms of providing adequate comfort and safety because their design is not suitable for usage as a taxi. This thesis highlights these differences in order to create a more sufficient approach to the taxi design. Besides trying to increase the comfort, safety and functionality of the taxis, this study also concentrates on the ease of the reuse of the mechanical parts of the existing taxis which will provide additional economic gains for owners or drivers of the vehicles. Furthermore, less repair time and less repair cost will be beneficial for the owners and the drivers; and also, standardization of all the vehicles will bring a more civilized and modern appearance to the cities.

After a trial, Arnold J held that both of the LTC marks were invalid on a number of grounds, and that one of them should be revoked for non-use.
