ABSTRACT
The rapid growth of motorized vehicles has increased fossil fuel consumption while worsening environmental conditions. Therefore, innovation is needed in the development of energy-efficient vehicles that are efficient, environmentally friendly, and meet the regulations of the Energy Efficient Car Contest (KMHE) competition. This study aims to design and manufacture an energy-efficient car frame in the urban concept category with a focus on structural strength, frame weight, and safety factors. The research process includes literature studies, designing several alternative frame designs, selecting rectangular hollow Aluminum 6061 material, and static analysis using manual calculations and Ansys software based on the finite element method (FEM). The analysis results show that the third candidate frame design with Aluminum 6061 material has the lightest weight of 7 kg, with a maximum stress value of 101.32 MPa, a deflection of 0,27333 mm, and a minimum safety factor of 3,8863 which is still within the safe limit. Based on a decision matrix that considers the criteria of strength, weight, and ease of fabrication, the third candidate design was selected as the final design. The frame manufacturing process is then realized through the stages of cutting, drilling, assembly, and connecting with rivets according to design specifications. This research resulted in a lightweight, strong frame design that meets KMHE competition standards, thus supporting the performance of energy-efficient vehicles in the urban concept category. These results are expected to serve as a technical benchmark and reference for further research in the development of environmentally friendly vehicles in the future.
