Properties in Materials for Car Frame Structure

Abstract

Selection of materials for car body frame ‘the body-in-white’ considers association of structural components. This context emphasizes competitive materials like aluminum and composites in place of steel for equivalent performances in area body panels. Continuous variation in legislation and competences of industrialists to competitive market have appeared to use functionally graded materials of additive properties like thermal transport and joining ease. Tubular shapes have encouraged production of stiff commercial auto bodies similar to sports cars. Material selection based on computer model software at every section has preferred, e.g. temperature, pollutant, material-based simulation for exhaust systems.
