Sammanfattning
Urban mobility is one of the fields under rapid development due to the movement
of society towards sustainability and green transport. Drive experience and comfort
of the user plays a vital role in the development of these vehicles. This project
looks into the future focusing on the development of an urban mobility solution
which could act as an alternative for cars inside the city. The standard product
development process was opted starting with generation of requirement specifica tions and function analysis. Concept generation was done following that, with the
help of ideas generated through innovative methods and final selection of concepts
were performed using elimination matrices. The result of the project is a virtual
prototype of a three wheeled electric trike concept with the ability to tilt the front
part of the vehicle to improve the user feel. Verification of the concept was also done
with the help of Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to make sure that the solution was
robust enough for usage.
