Recap:
see dynamics workday recap
I went over how front suspension geometry reference sketches work - how to insert the master model to make parts
Members all worked on vsusp and then made good progress on their reference sketches / skeleton models in solidworks
From Kayla:
I will be putting up all my notes and documentation today including:
Beginning bearing selection for DAYBREAK
Bearing calculations - starting point - not too thorough yet
Double wishbone reference sketch / master modeling references - will be doing another explanation at workday if that is helpful
initial calculations for TW and lateral acceleration
spring rate and damper coefficient notes from Jacob discussion
I have uploaded notes on:
Combustion’s Corner balancing methods
Combustion’s Control arm manufacturing methods
I will talk about ASC suspension basics on Workday
I will talk a bit more about the reference sketches at workday ( should you find it helpful)
Assignments and updates:
Carter will be on FEA and continuing new gen research and suspension properties
working on blocking method in solidworks to isolate movements
might present to us how he did it ^^
La’akea was sick - she will catch up on the dynamics recap, work on the starter project on her own
continue understanding general suspension geometry for double wishbone and the loads being places on pushrods
Be prepared to meet with composites on workday
Manas and Oliver → Daybreak machining and repairing
Bearing research and calculations assigned to both
Be prepared on workday to dedicate time to looking at bearings
Manas - Trailing arm research assigned still - will work with Jonathan from Unsprung over the course of the semester
Be ready to meet with one another on workday to begin research together
By next workday (other than above):
Everyone will have watched ASC
We will go over it in detail - I will present some key points
Everyone will have finished watching SRR
REFERENCE SKETCHES - work in progress
Begin working on the assembly / parts if a that point
