Material Selection and Analysis of Torsional Rigidity in Formula Student SAE regulation

The advancement of automotive technology is rapid in this era, as evidenced by the existence autopilot vehicles that have been developed a scientist. This progress balanced with knowledge continues to develop world education. Many prestigious competitions are held be venue for student creativity and research developing technology, one which Formula Student SAE. background study an engineered electric vehicle chassis, especially Student. aims produce chassis design has torsional rigidity based on selection materials stiffness, strength, lightweight, optimization material cost. structure was designed following SAE regulations. To select material, initial screening used Ashby method 4 types. Optimum selecting Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method. Meanwhile, selected analyzed using Solidworks Simulation Education software. results produced Aluminum Alloys 7075-T6 value 552.65 x 103 Nmm/degree could achieve minimum set at 500 Nmm/degree.
