Fender Design - Wheel Arch Challenge

Aim :

To calculate the Wheel Arc area and prove whether the car will pass the standards or Not.

Fender :

• It is the part of an automobile, motorcycle or other vehicle body that frames a wheel well (the fender underside).
• A fender protects and frames its wheels and keeps mud from splashing it.

Wheel Arch :

The wheel arch is the semicircular part positioned above the wheel of a vehicle. The most important body change was that the front wheel arch was cut higher into the fender. The car has big, high-definition headlights that extend to the wheel arch.

Japan Regulations :

European Regulations :

SA - SA :

L = 9.95 mm

SB - SB :

L = 10 mm

SC - SC :

L = 0 mm

SD - SD :

L = 0.76

Clearanc 'L' at SA - SA :

L = -6.06

Clearance :

Clearance A at 30 line SB :

a = 43.36

Clearance A at 50 line SC :

a = 38.25

Table :

Section	L (>10 mm)	Result	a (> 5mm)	Result
SA - SA	9.95 mm	Fail	43.36 mm	Pass
SB - SB	10.00 mm	Pass
SC - SC	0.00 mm	Fail	38.25 mm	Pass
SD - SD	-0.76 mm	Fail
SE - SE	-6.06 mm	Fail

Conclusion :

From the observations we can conclude that the above results does not pass the European Standards.
