CHAPTER 2 : Discussion on: Technology invented or used.


FORD GT 40


The car was named the GT (for Grand Tourisme) with the 40 representing its overall height of 40 inches (1.02 m, measured at the windshield) as required by the rules.


Chassis in New Invented Technology(The New GT)

  • Computer modeling was used during chassis and body development and crash testing to shorten the time frame
  • cutting prototype requirements by 90 percent. 
  • aluminium shim-nut systemto attach and locate body panels in proper position relative to the extruded space frame
  •  an aluminum extruded space frame - The alluminum chassis




INTRODUCTION CONT.




















CHAPTER 1 : INTRODUCTION TO SYSTEM (CHASSIS)



Introduction to the system-chassis

What is Chassis?

The chassis means a frame the main structure to installed generally together with the engine,wheel,axles assembles,transmission,steering mechanism,brake,and suspension member are mounted and built with the purpose of supporting the vehicle and act as a backbone in a vehicle

It forms the main structure of the modern
automobile.


Type of Chassis


Advantages of Chassis
  • Absorbs reaction from the movement of engine and axle
  • Receives reaction forces of the wheels in acceleration and braking
  • Absorbs aerodynamic wind forces and road shocks through suspension
  • Absorbs major energy impact in an accident
