Abstract: Transports are the preeminent method of road transportation. The look of the vehicle body depends mainly on driving the execution requirement underneath varying sorts of stacking and managing conditions separated from those of the street conditions. The model investigation moreover, static and modal basic associate analysis of an enunciated urban transport body, was completed with the FEM. In this Project, the bus body was dealt with static analysis with different boundary and loading conditions. Static analysis was carried out for the bus body made up of Titanium, Aluminium and E Glass (Composite Material) to determine the equivalent stress and deformation on considering the self weight of the materials. From the results obtained it can be concluded that the E Glass material was found to be better material compared to other materials. Finally, Self Weight of E Glass was considered to optimize a bus body which may increase its life and efficiency.

Keywords: Static Analysis, E Glass, Equivalent Stress, Deformation, Self Weight
