After studying the mock-up and making necessary
changes to the frame, a CAD model of the frame was
made with a view to perform finite element analysis and
testing. (Fig 4, 5, 6)

(Fig 5) In the frontal impact analysis, a 5KN force was used as
it was assumed impact would be with a stationary object.
The deformation was minimal and proved the frame was
rigid enough to withstand a crash. (Fig 8)
