Maylin - Made a basic frame w/ no tubes. Need to add dimensions and more references.

Alyssa -

Grace - Finished a frame reference sketch

Abigail - Learning and experimenting on creating a frame, looking at different roll cage types.

Devansh -
Reviewed notes taken over Regulations, Solar Car book, and modeling FSAE Frame SW videos.
Attempted to create a sketch of an occupant cell.

Josh - Discussed with suspension approaches to mounting for front and rear, drew up concepts for rear design for trailing arm and continued work on configurable frame assembly.

Maylin - Created list of parameters for the frame

Alyssa -

Grace -

Abigail - Learning about suspension and the shape of the frame in regards to that, and continued to research the roll cage.

Devansh -

Discussed multilevel frame architecture with suspension system.

Began research into multilevel frame architecture.

Began critiquing old frame design.

10/26

 

Josh - Leanred more intuitive frame design and solids fundamentals from Noah lecture

Met with dynamics to discuss reference sketching approach and continued progress on Body ref sketch

Maylin -

Alyssa -

Grace -

Abigail -

Devansh -

Learned intuitive frame design using statics principles from Noah.

Spoke w/suspension about what bell cranks are and why a hexagonal front-frame would be better than rectangular.

Began preliminary front-frame sketches that reference current hardpoints.
