SMAT2019

The document outlines a benchmark study focusing on vehicle design parameters, including inner volume, dimensions, mass, and driving limits. It details the selection of suspension types, dynamic behavior criteria, and strength analyses for the vehicle model. Additionally, it emphasizes material selection and optimization for lightweight design while ensuring strength and durability criteria are met.
