  1. PACE 2008-2009Global Vehicle Collaboration ProjectEmerging Market Vehicle

  2. Missions • To engineer a vehicle for emerging markets. • To develop among the students the concepts related to collaborative design. • To enhance collaboration between PACE institutions.

  3. Project Definitons • Emerging Markets: The denomination used to make reference to the nations that are becoming industrialized. - Growing GDP - Growing per-capita income - Growing markets for industrial products It is an economical rather than political or cultural definition.

  4. Emerging Markets

  5. Emerging Markets • Different levels of development • Area and population disparities: • Brazil: 8.5million km2 & 170 million ppl • India: 3.3million km2 & 1.2 billion ppl • Geographically dispersed • Different road conditions • Cultural diversity: • Individual X Group • Different wishes and tastes.

  6. Emerging Markets • Economic Data – PPP (2007)

  7. Emerging markets • Vehicle Ownership (per 1000ppl)

  8. Emerging markets in History • Early XXth Century • USA: 1908 – Model T was produced for the growing urban middle class. • 1930 and post-WWII • Western Europe: VW, Fiat 500, Citroën 2CV, Morris Minor - affordable to the growing middle class. • Present • China, India, Brazil, Russia

  9. Learning from History • Inovative products, affordable, reliable, easy to drive and mantain, all of the emerging market vehicles from the past became symbols for their respective nations and auto-industries – classic sucessful products that changed the landscape.

  10. For the future • Like technology, organizational practices also evolved. • Products, Markets, Supply chains and Development became global. • Using collaborative engineering across the globe can optimize development time and quality by the better use of a corporation resources. Students need to know how to operate on their future work environment!

  11. Design proposals • GM Design sent a set of 15 DVD with their design concepts for the emerging market vehicle. • PACE Office has given us total freedom to develop the vehicle as we see fit. • Which design should we choose?

  12. The chosen one “.RU” – Originally meant for the Russian Market.

  13. Emerging Market Vehicle • To guide the teams on their sub-system design. • Technical Specifications • Realistic targets for dimensions, performance, operation, confort, safety, cost. • Technical solutions • Possible ways to implement some of the vehicle subsystems.

  14. Emerging Market Vehicle Basic Specifications: • Capacity: 2 adults and two youngsters (up to 15yo). The driver will seat confortably if he/she is: • No shorter than 1,50m and no taller than 1,90m. • The control forces will be compatible with the strenght of the shortest driver (Refer to human engineering guides for precise values of strenght and limb movement amplitudes). • Total load capacity will be near 5000N including passengers, luggage and fuel. • Maximum value for the vehicle empty weight will be 8000N.

  15. Emerging Market Vehicle • Basic dimensions: • Lenght: 3,70m (max) • Width: 1,60m (max) • Height: 1,50m (max) • Wheelbase: 2,6m (max) • Track: 1,40m (max) • Handling: • Slight linear understeer

  16. Emerging Market Vehicle • The vehicle will be capable to sustain a constant speed of 120km/h in highways, fully ladden. No downshift will be needed if the gradient is less than 3%. • The vehicle will be capable to climb in a 20% gradient, fully ladden. The two conditions will define maximum power and torque. In both cases the traction limit will not be exceeded.

  17. Emerging Market Vehicle • Powerplant: • Given the diferent charactheristics of each market in terms of energy sources it is possible to have multiple poweplants options that will fit on the vehicle. • Internal combustion engine (gasoline-ethanol) • Electric • Hybrid The performance requirements were established for a gasoline-ethanol fueled vehicle.

  18. Schools and Systems • Each School was free to choose one system.

  19. Project Organization Chart • How to have the teams working together? • How to organise tasks, flow of information?

  20. Project Organization Chart

  21. Project Development • Basic specification of all sub-systems passed to the schools. • Each School started to detail its sub-system – According to the academic objectives set by the faculty. • Design Reviews. • Work with mentors.

  22. Project organization • Organizing the calendar compatible with school year (Exams, holidays). • Every school has its own academic goals for the project – Include them as overall project goals. • Setting-up a structure for meetings – Videoconference, phone line. • Teamcenter Site (Thanks Siemens UGS!)

  23. Project Development • Teamcenter site

  24. Project Development • Assembly of the complete vehicle CAD Model. • Every school wrote a detailed project report. • The report contains detailed technical data to allow the project continuation during next year by the manufacturing team. • CAD and CAE files are also part of the overall project report.

  25. Final Remarks • Thanks for joining the 2008-2009 PACE Global Project! Marcelo A. L. Alves E-mail: malalves@usp. br or marcelo.alves@poli.usp.br Phone: + 55 11 3091-9879
