Diseño, simulación y construcción de una estructura de Roll Bar para un vehículo de competición modalidad Rally, según normativa FIA ARTÍCULO 253-2014, mediante análisis computacional por el método de elementos finitos

Abstract

The development of the present technical project carried out in the city of Ambato focuses on the design, analysis and construction of a structure of a roll bar (anti roll cage) modeled for a Chevrolet Corsa vehicle that will be put into competition in the rally mode and mountain climbs in the various championships to be held in the country in order to provide the greatest safety to the crew of the car in compliance with the regulations imposed by the International Automobile Federation. The structure is built with structural steel manufactured in Ecuador modeled and analyzed under official FIA regulations where the desired results were obtained to have the reliability for installation in the vehicle and to test it in several competitions carried out by FEDAK (Ecuadorian Federation of Motorsports and Kartismo) where it has been observed that the Roll Bar has a good behavior as a structure inside the car without deformations or ruptures in any part of the structure. All the analyzes and modeling were carried out in softwares with licenses granted to the Technical University of Ambato and the collection of some data of the materials used were obtained from reliable sources of documents made by teachers of the Faculty of Civil and Mechanical Engineering.
