Resumen
The objective of this project was to design and construct a 100cc single-seater prototype vehicle
named mini T-Rex, using CAD/CAE software, to optimize commuting times for students
traveling from the main entrance of ESPOCH to the Faculty of Natural Resources building. Initial
measurements of the chassis components, specifically the engine, were taken, followed by the
modeling of the chassis using CAD software. For the static analysis, loads throughout the chassis
were considered, accounting for the weight of the occupant, engine, and other essential
components relevant to the study. CAE software was employed to simulate various loads based
on different occupant weights, and the behavior of the chassis was assessed in terms of
deformations and safety factors. Due to the absence of a specific regulatory framework governing
this prototype, adherence was ensured to the NTE INEN 1323:2009 standard. The results revealed
that the static analysis of the chassis produced deformation values below 2 mm in all tested
combinations, both under static conditions and following the provisional standard. Moreover, the
average safety factor ranged between 2 and 3, which is considered acceptable for structural
integrity. In terms of time reduction, data was collected for two modes of transportation: walking
and utilizing the prototype vehicle. It was observed that the prototype vehicle decreased travel
time by 82.3% compared to walking. As a recommendation, it is advisable to install a specially
designed front wheel rim for three-wheeled vehicles to ensure proper steering and stability.
