What is something you struggled with this week? What is something you are proud of this week?

SRR Key Takeaways/Next Steps

• Overall

  • Ideas for reviewing drawings and structure for estimating weights

  • Get reasoning for 3 wheel by PDR

• Suspension

  • Not being scared of aluminum welding and using that as a way to push ourselves

  • Quantify with just reasoning our parameters like 60-40 or FOS

• Steering

  • Look further into gearbox design as the issues we were maybe afraid of aren’t as big of a thing

  • Look into tunability

• Unsprung

  • Figure out brake disks

  • Tolerancing of bearings

Overall

• we need to define how we are going to do reference points on the mold, and confirm that the knowledge is transferred

Aerodynamics

• We need to solidify the plan for splitting up work and creating different parts of the shell(nose, tail, how to we avoid it messing up the overall geometrey)

• Talk about roll cage in an intersystem meeting, because thats the next big thing that defines what we do

Composites

• Figure out design of windshield with respect to the polycarb and what materials we should use

• LOTS of wesley notes, not worth putting all in this spot since its lot of smaller specific notes

• resin infusion is a risk and will cost a lot of money (vacuum)

• consider having aeroshell PDR at the same time as dynamics and frame CDR

• Be more thoughtful/less arbitrary with goals (i.e. goals were good, but have them bounded better, and be able to directly measure/compare them in the future

• Really really review composites plan to ensure we can make good progress while reaching our key frame goals

• Be more thoughtful in ergo design, think more about possible situations/applications (minimize oversight)

• Difference between making a part that would be cool, and making a part that is practical and effective (i.e. carbon fiber steering wheel vs fiber glass steering wheel)

• Rethink whether we really need so much of cooling, vibration dampening, etc

• Have a good testing and simulation plan - know the basics.

• Do composite testing but only test for your expected loading/impacts. Wastes time

• Add FOS to only few parts and then design other parts to handle extreme cases

• Shield all HV cables - probably a source of most EMF interference

• properly fuse all battery connections

• Match mechanical loading of rest of the car in terms of FOS/what we can see during transport

• Base cooling off of RMS current
