Research On Styling Design Of Modern Trams

Since the modern tram was produced in 1970s, in virtue of the advantages of its relatively low investment, convenient traffic, safe operation, little pollution, attractive appearance and being able to effectively solve traffic congestion problem of the large and medium-sized cities in coordination with subways, etc., the tram have had good development in Europe and many cities in North America and achieved remarkable social and economic benefits as well. To take it as a guide, it is bound to be the choice of each Chinese city with rapid development to reasonably and scientifically plan and build a modern tram system as a supplementary of city public transport. On the basis of collecting and analyzing a large number of relevant text data and picture materials both at home and abroad and combining with scientific and artistic quality of the styling design, the thesis mainly discusses three aspects, namely the elements and principles of the styling design of modern trams, model aesthetic application and detail modeling of the main body from the perspective of industrial design. The thesis not only provides a theoretical basis and reference for designing, researching and developing the modern tram as well as improving our styling design of modern trams level, but also has important theoretical and practical significance. In this thesis, the main research work carried out is as follows:Firstly, the thesis introduces and classifies the modern tram according to the collected text data and defines the objectives of the paper. It also summarizes the collected relevant picture materials according to manufacturers.Secondly, in combination with the mature and advanced existing products, the thesis gives introduction and analysis of the contents of the styling design of modern trams in detail. Then from the general styling design principle of mechanical and electrical products and in combination with characteristics of those products, the thesis put forwards the basic principles that the styling design of modern trams should follow.Thirdly, from the aesthetic perspective of the industrial product modeling the thesis analyzes the relevant aesthetic rules of the modern tram body shape, which provides referent advice for designing, researching and developing attractive modern tram.Fourthly, the thesis makes analysis and research from three aspects, namely materials, shape and color, which decide the appearance of the products. It gives a detailed introduction of factors which should take into account, that is, the reasonable selection of the modern tram main body modeling material and main body color. It eventually summarizes the features of each detailed part.Finally, on the basis of theoretical research the thesis carries out practical creation. The author designs a 100% low floor modern tram.
