5. Overall discussion Based on the results of simulations that have been done, the results show that the GT40 chassis has a von Mises stress. The minimum result is 9.082 x 10 -8 MPa and a maximum of 181,7 MPa. For Strains, the result of the minimum value is located at normal YY of -6.649 x 10 -4 , and the maximum is located at normal YY of 3.179 x 10 -4 . The maximum magnitude displacement of the GT40 chassis is 0.441 mm. The result of the reaction force of GT40 chassis, maximum magnitude is 548.9 N. The result of the safety factor, maximum magnitude at 15 and minimum at 1.14, was adopted as a mean value from the range of factors for very accurate calculations, uniform material, and fine design (Oswald, 2007). Very accurate simulated calculations of these frames with the finite element method have been conducted for several years. This allowed for a tremendous experience which translates into the quality of calculations. The results of calculations are verified experimentally on stationary test facilities or test tracks. The structural elements of this type of frame require the use of metal sheets made of only one type of steel with particular controlled chemical composition and specific mechanical properties (Szulc et al.,2016). The proper construction documentation, high level of technology and workshop equipment, and well-prepared and trained crew are all critical factors. Moreover, the manufactured products should be subjected to partial and final inspections with a high-quality standard. This result can be seen with a color orientation after the process simulation is done. 6. Conclusions There are several types of chassis, one of which is used in this study, namely monocoque chassis. After going through the design process, the analysis used is the FEA with static loading. The analysis carried out aims to determine how many results from displacement, strain, stress, reaction force, and safety factor. The results show that the GT40 chassis has a minimum von-Mises Stress of 9.082 x 10 -8 MPa and a maximum of 181.7 MPa. The result of the minimum value is located at the Y axis of of -6.649 x 10 -4 and the maximum is located at the Y axis of 3.179 x 10 -4 . The maximum magnitude of the displacement is 0.441 mm, while the maximum magnitude reaction force is 548.9 N. The maximum safety factor is at 15 and minimum at 1.14. This research should be carried out with a comparison of the materials used, so they can find out which material is the most suitable for the designed chassis.
