Monocoque (/ ˈmɒnəkɒk, - koʊk / MON-ə-ko (h)k), also called structural skin, is a structural system in which loads are supported by an object's external skin, in a manner similar to an egg shell. The word monocoque is a French term for "single shell". [1]

2020年4月30日 · A look at the history of vehicle structural design considering body on frame, unibody, monocoque, space frame, skateboard chassis, and other techniques.

2022年8月5日 · monocoque design offers a stiffer structure with similar or lower total mass resulting in a high specific stiffness design that out-performs conventional welded designs. This thesis provides a detailed background on chassis design and the necessary design requirements to meet performance targets and competition regulations.

2024年10月2日 · Monocoque structures consist of a design in which only the skin of the aircraft carries the flight loads. With a semi-monocoque design, these structural and load-bearing elements include the skin of the aircraft, stringers, and the frame.

2021年12月7日 · What is Monocoque Construction? The definition of monocoque construction relates to "single-shell" car construction in which the entire external skin of the monocoque car body is a structural,...

2020年11月6日 · Monocoque construction is significant for reducing the vehicle’s overall weight by integrating the chassis and the body into a single unit. Other vehicle components such as power train, steering , suspension , and brakes are directly mounted to the vehicle’s body in …

Monocoque is a structural technique in which stresses are reacted by a thin membrane or a shell of material, rather than a collection of beams. Such structures are stiff in bending, and light, and are therefore ideal for weight-sensitive vehicles such as airplanes.

2024年8月29日 · A monocoque chassis forms the backbone of most modern single-seater and sports competition cars. With a monocoque, the entire homogenous chassis structure is stressed, directly carrying all the loads applied to it.

2013年9月18日 · Monocoque construction is an automobile design technique that uses the exterior shell of the vehicle to provide structural support. This can be contrasted with traditional body-on-frame construction, which relies on the frame to provide structural integrity.

2014年4月1日 · The isotropic analysis is used to gain insight and acquire knowledge about the behavior of shells and monocoque structures when subjected to a vehicle's applied loads. The isotropic modeling is then used to set initial design targets …
