Summary:

On the vehicles development, the chassis structural analysis has notorious importance in terms of performance, safety and drivability. Therefore, using great potential tools, as the finite elements analysis (FEA), becomes an undisputed object in the analysis of competition vehicles development. On the monocoque chassis development from Baja SAE competition is no different, because these vehicles are taken to the extreme during competitions. Because it requires great resistance to bending and twisting the Baja SAE chassis is a space frame type, like most of competition vehicles. Thus, structurally evaluating torsional and flexural stiffness and the arrangement of the tubular elements (space frame chassis) from Baja SAE chassis is of paramount importance to measure its structural integrity and drivability. In this context, the objective of this work is to carry out a detailed static analysis via the finite elements of the Baja SAE chassis to validate the structure of the single-track off-road that is being developed at the Faculty of Technology of UERJ. In this way, all the necessary stages will be addressed, ranging from the theoretical basis and measurement of the SAE-Brazil norms, through the geometric and structural models, to the loads and results. The results show that, for the static analyzes carried out, the equivalent strains and tensions are within the permissible ranges
