Abstract:

In this study, carbon fiber and glass fiber reinforced materials and epoxy resin matrix materials were used to design the layer structure of automobile engine hood. Sample of automobile engine hood is manufactured and comparative analysis of its performance is conducted. The results show that the fiber reinforced engine hood can not only meet the requirements of stiffness and modal, but also effectively reduce the weight of the engine hood. Under different working conditions, the simulation results of the free modal, transverse bending stiffness and torsional stiffness of the engine hood were compared with the experimental results and the performance of the original steel engine hood, which verified the effectiveness of the design. The optimization design of the composite engine hood was further studied. Compared with the initial design, the weight of the engine hood was further reduced by 9.7% through optimization. The design gives full play to the advantages of the fiber composite material in automobile lightweight.

Key words: vehicle engineering, carbon fiber reinforced composite, lightweight, engine hood, optimization
