Fender Design - Wheel Arch Challenge

SKIN DATA AS INPUT:

FENDER WHEEL ARC AREA:

OUR MAIN AIM IS TO DESIGN THE WHEEL INSIDE THE FENDER REGION FOR SAFTEY PRECAUTIONS.INCASE IF THE WHEEL IS OUTSIDE THE FENDER,DURING MOTION OF THE CAR,TYRE CAN CHIP SOME ROCKS,SAND,MUD AND OTHER PARTICLE TO DAMAGE THE CARS BODY AND ALSO IT CAUSE DAMAGE TO PEDESTRIANS AS WELL.AS A FENDER DESIGNER OUR RESPONSIBILITES IS TO DESIGN THE WHEEL ARC AREA OUTSIDE THE TYRE AREA.

WHEEL ARC:

INITIALLY I GOT FENDER SKIN DATA AS INPUT.FIRST I CREATED THE DATUM PLANE ON FACE OF THE WHEEL.CREATE SKETCH ON THE DATUM PLANE AND PROJECT THE WHEEL ARC EDGE.CREATE HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL AXIS.THEN CREATE A DERIVED LINE BETWEEN VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL LINE THE MARK THE ANGLE AS 50DEGREE(RIGHT SIDE OF WHEEL).NOW CREATE DERIVED LINE BETWEEN VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL LINE AND MARK ANGLE AS 30DEGREE(LEFT SIDE OF THE WHEEL).NOW WE NEED TO CREATE DERIVED LINE BETWEEN 50DEGREE LINE AND HORIZONTAL LINE AND MARK DISTANCE AS 150mm WITH RESPECT TO HORIZONTAL LINE.FINALLY CREATE ANOTHER DERIVED LINE BETWEEN 50DEGREE LINE AND 150mm LINE (THIS LINE SHOULD BE CENTRE BETWEEN THESE TWO LINES).THESE LINES SHOULD BE INTERSECTING WITH WHEEL EDGE PROJECTION LINE.NOW CREATE A 2D INTERSECTION POINTS.TOTALLY WE NEED TO CREATE 6 INTERSECTING POINTS.FINALLY PROJECT THESE POINT INTO FENDER BODY .INORDER TO MEASURE THE GAP BETWEEN TYRE AND WHEEL ARC USE THESE POINTS MEASUREMENTS FOR OUR REFERENCE.SO I HAVE ATTACHED THE IMAGES FOR REFERENCE.

DATUM PLANE :

SKETCH AND LINE CREATION:

INTERSECTION POINTS:

SIDE VIEW OF INTERSECTION POINTS:

MEASUREMENT 1:

MEASUREMENT 2:

MEASUREMENT 3:

MEASUREMENT 4:

MEASUREMENT 5:

MEASUREMENT 6:

TABLE:

MEASUREMENT 1	MEASUREMENT 2	MEASUREMENT 3	MEASUREMENT 4	MEASUREMENT 5	MEASUREMENT 6
10	9.94	0.11(-VE VALUE)	4.47(-VE VALUE)	9.61(-VE VALUE)	22.10(-VE VALUE)

FROM THE MEASUREMENTS I FOUND THAT MEASUREMENT 1 IS MEETING THE EUROPEAN STANDARD AND REMAINING OTHER ARE FAILED TO MEET THIS STANDARD.ALL VALUES SHOULD BE 10mm OR ABOVE 10mm.

CONCLUDING THAT WE SHOULD INFORM THE STYLING TEAM TO IMPROVE THE WHEEL ARC AREA CURVATURE.
