The aim of this project was to design, construct and develop a space frame for a pneumatically driven vehicle for one driver through several simulations. The purpose of the vehicle was to compete in the ‘XI. International Aventics Pneumobile Competition’. This event is an opportunity for students to develop and improve their skills in different fields such as mechanical engineering, telemetry and electronics building and team working. However, this thesis topic will be focused mainly on the aspects of mechanical engineer based on the process of before and after the construction. This process was also examined through a number of races occurred during the competition. Specifically, the chassis that has been initially designed was developed through the whole process with purpose of lowering the mass while maintaining the strength. The study has produced two results - a real life model, which has participated in the competition and an improved model of the frame which was carried out in Autodesk Inventor and ADAMS software. Throughout the process the frame was remodeled and resulted with the weight loss from 48.3 kg to 31.9kg, while the strength was maintained. / XI. International Aventics Pneumobile Competition
