Design and manufacture of a composite bus
Abstract
Within the project CIVITAS - Cleaner and Better Transport in Cities, a new concept of bodywork for a minibus has been developed. Bearing in mind the financial resources available, it was decided to transform a Toyota Coaster, reusing the entire mechanical base (frame) and design a new body with composite materials. In this paper, it will be presented the industrial design solution, related with structural concept, manufacture and assembly. It will, also, be presented the structural simulation of the sandwich (sandwich Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) core and COMBI skins) panels, using ABAQUS software and the estimated properties of the composite system were determined using ESACOMP software. In parallel with the simulations, a manufacturing strategy was agreed with a shipyard (ENP- Estaleiros Navais de Peniche). The technology applied was the Vacuum Infusion that uses the resin injection through vacuum, to impregnate and consolidate the laminate. The final solution presents a weight reduction of 16% with respect to the original one. Moreover, with this manufacturing process, it has been possible to have big size parts with high quality finishing. The strategy used made a reduction in the number of parts as well as in the production time.
