Second Workday Plan - 10/5/2024

General

Suspension

Steering

Unsprung

 

Starter project for all of them is to make a front suspension.

 

 

about 1.5 hrs

Draw the bicycle model for using the previous cars dimensions in solidworks, correlate model with ackerman calculations

 

 

about 1.5 hour

Assign individual member:

1 person rear swing arm

Sami working on Hub + Spindle design

1 person working on hub and spindle separate

Steven + 1 person working on upright

 

Assigning members / evaluating interest and projects: 

  • Want to do machining, math?, calculations, vehicle dynamics?, etc. 

1 member : Rear trailing arm x unsprung member

1 member : Composite components collab w composites, > interest in load analysis, 

1 member :  Daybreak - 

1 member : Daybreak - 

Does anyone want to focus on manufacturing 

Correlate ackerman angles with physical steering geometry (6 bar probably, maybe 4 bar). Onboarding project that will be used to lead into new members designing steering geometry

Spend 3 hours on just going through unsprung together dimensions and finding out all the dependencies. Then go about who needs to do what design.

Lunch

 

 

 

Talk about what you learned from the readings 

 

About 30 mins

 

 

 

Go through their CAD and have them explain how they did it to us

 

 About 30 mins

 

 

 

CAD Practice about 2 hrs

 

 

 

End of workday meeting

  • Everyone goes through what they did first members then subleads

  • Subleads tell their members what they will be doing throughout the week (technical things related to their task)

  • General thing they will be doing throughout the week (CAD)

 

 

 

Technical Homework:

  • Suspension Design Video Cesar Sent

    • Notes (optional but recommended)

    • One question (discuss)

    • One thing you learned (discuss)

CAD Homework:

  • 2024 Model Mania

    • Only Phase 1, if you have time Phase 2 but it’s already a lot of tasks

    • Use solution video as needed to help
