Fender Design - Wheel Arch Challenge

this is the front view of wheel and fender.these lines are extracted from the surface inorder to check European standards for wheel arc.

the green circle line is circle of wheel and blue line is arc of fender from the front view.

there is a 5 lines connecting the centre of the wheel centre and inclined at different angles.

• line OB is at normal to horizontal line
• line OA is inclined 30 degree to line OB
• line OC is inclined 50 degree to line OB
• line OE connects the centre of circle and intersection point of parallel line at a distance 150 mm from horizontal line
• line OD is the bisecting line of line OC and OE

this is the bottom view of the wheel and fender.the straight horizontal line is outer boundary of the wheel near to the outer curvature of the fender.A,B,C,D and E are exact point mention above viewed from bottom view.

according to european standard for wheel arc ; distance between the horizontal line (outer boundary for wheel near to fender) and the fender curvature should be more tha 10 mm from point A to E.

the distance feom horizontal line from point A to the fender curvature is 701.2851 mm which is more than 10 mm.

the distance between the horizontal line from point B to the fender curvature is 725.5497 mm which is more than 10 mm.

but distance between horizontal line from point C,D, and E and curvature of fender is less than 10 mm.the fender curvature overlaps the horizontal line before point C as you can see in figure.

so the fender curvature is not enough to accepted according to europian standards.so the curvature of fender should be improved and distance between the horizontal line and fender curvature should be more than 10 mm feom region A to E to get accepted for european standards.
