Abstract

This paper aims to design and fabricatea roll cage of an electric all-terrain vehicle made up of circular cross-section pipes. Modeling and analysis are performed using software, i.e., CATIA, according to the rulebook provided. The maximum deflection is determined by performing static analysis with consideration to the position of the motor and battery, the braking system, the steering system, the seat position, and many more. The FEA results are verified by comparing with analytical calculations. Considering these results, the model is modified.
