A chassis is the main skeleton of a go-kart containing distinct components such
as the engine, brakes, fuel tank, rear axle, etc. It supports the entire weight
and load of the components, so it must be steady enough to withstand shock,
twisting, vibration, and other stress. This paper reviews the study carried out
on the chassis, highlighting the area where the Nodes,
Primary and Secondary members, Horizontal and Vertical
members, and Chassis stiffness support the jacking
effect with the constraints of maximum Torsional stress,
deflection, and critical regions under loading conditions. AISI 4130 is used as
the chassis material. When dealing with the software, SolidWorks 2023 and Fusion
360 are used for designing the chassis whereas ANSYS 2022 is used for the
analysis of the designed chassis. In order to reduce weight, improve material
consumption, and provide an appropriate cross-section, a simulation technique
was used in design optimization.
