Abstract

As electric vehicles (EVs) continue to gain prominence in the automotive industry, the demand for efficient and lightweight components becomes crucial for overall vehicle performance. This study focuses on the optimization of the bracket used for mounting the motor in electric vehicles, aiming to enhance structural integrity, reduce weight, and improve overall efficiency. The research employs a multi-faceted approach, combining advanced materials analysis, structural simulations, and manufacturing techniques to achieve an optimal design. Initially, a comprehensive materials selection process is conducted, considering factors such as strength, weight, and cost. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is then employed to simulate the bracket's structural behavior under various loading conditions, ensuring that it meets stringent performance and safety standards. The optimization process involves fine-tuning the bracket's geometry to strike a balance between weight reduction and structural robustness, thereby improving the overall efficiency of the electric motor system. Additionally, advanced manufacturing methods, such as additive manufacturing and precision machining, are explored to facilitate the production of the optimized bracket. These techniques not only contribute to the reduction of material waste but also allow for complex geometries that further enhance the bracket's performance.
