Challenge

Fender Design - Wheel Arch Challenge

Fendor wheel arch- semi circular part of fendor positioned above the wheel of vehicle ,that allows wheel to accessed in case front wheel , enable to steered.

Arch extension -bodywork parts that allows very widde or high offset rim to fiited to vehicle providing additional wheel arch clearence.

types

- circular

- pointed

- parabolic

calculations

with clearence , wheel arch area,area K, angles(wheel guard)-used for calculating wheel arch.

For japan- clearence (L) of tire, and fendor in three different positions with area K. clearence must br greater than 5mm in all three positions. for wheel guard requirement-more than 5mm at 30degree angle in forward and 50degree angle in rearward of centrel of vertical axis of axis of wheel.

For European regulation - clearence (L) must be greater than 10mm. In European regulation- section with different angles are considered for validation, with this clearence was maintain greater than 10mm all three different positions.

For US regulation- clearence (L) must be greater than 5mm at 30degree at forward and 50degree angle at rearward from central vertical axis of axis of wheel. For every 10degree-need to check -start from minus20degree, major clearence 10mm was maintain at all three position, with fendor corner radius of 2.5mm.

Section Regulations Clearence (L) Results
Japan Minimum L= 5mm Pass
European Minimum L= 10mm Pass
United States Minimum L = 5mm Pass
