Abstract

Buses are generally designed with an emphasis on aesthetics. However, the design also needs to consider aerodynamic performance factors, as they directly affect vehicle stability, fuel efficiency, and emissions levels. This study proposes an aerodynamic redesign of the bus body to reduce fuel consumption. The expected values can be calculated using two more targeted design models with the assistance of SolidWorks and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation method. This method was used to evaluate the influence of body design on vehicle performance. Results show that the conventional bus consumes 30,016.17 kJ/year, while the redesigned bus only consumes 21,935.79 kJ/year, with a 26.93% reduction in fuel consumption. Additionally, the redesigned bus exhibits a lower drag coefficient, drag force, and energy input, indicating the effectiveness of the aerodynamic improvements.

Abstract

Bumpers are critical structures in passenger vehicles, designed to absorb low-speed impact energy. This study examines the effect of profile combinations (C-Hat and Double-Hat Section) and materials (Steel Bare/E.G.-H.F.80Y 100T, CFRP T700S, Aluminium 2024-T86) on MPV bumper reinforcement beam performance under UN ECE R.42 standards. Finite Element Method (FEM) simulations using ANSYS Explicit Dynamic with longitudinal impact tests (4 km/h) and side tests (2.5 km/h) were conducted to evaluate deformation, stress, and energy absorption. Results revealed that C-Hat Section with Aluminium 2024-T86 delivered optimal performance: von Mises stress 194.40 MPa, deformation 1.2057 mm, and energy absorption 160.31 J at 4 mm thickness. The Weighted Sum Model (WSM) analysis confirmed this combination as the best choice (score 1.773). The proposed design meets safety criteria while maintaining weight efficiency for MPV applications.
