The primary design criterion considered is the torsional stiffness which is determined from the application requirements and data available in the literature. Factors that influence this methodology include the definition of the vehicle loading conditions, failure criteria, and important design parameters, chief among which is the torsional stiffness. The purpose of this research is to develop a composite monocoque chassis by analysing its structural integrity through an iterative finite element analysis process with the intention of developing a lightweight solar-powered vehicle. The concept of the composite monocoque chassis has been implemented in many vehicle designs however, there is limited open literature defining the process of simulating a composite monocoque chassis.
