Thank you for your tutorial.

You mentioned that you have code that makes WinGeo outputs easier to use?

Can you please send the program code to me?

agarg@mail.uh.edu

Have you tried looking for it?


They are available through the makes of Adams/Car.

Quiz: Who makes adams/car?

University of Michigan at Ann Arbor.

They offer their AE online along with blended /on campus.

Kettering University...See SAE partnership...also partially available online.

Havent read through it, bought it today, seems like it was recently released.

99% sure this is a fake. Better report it.

Dont be desperate and try and email this person without them providing you a company email.

If its too good to be true, it probably is. The person...

I had a rude remark but I deleted it.


Stay a while, read around, these forums should definitely be an humbling experience for you.


Roll hoops are safety features that help with keeping it...

A professor or faculty adviser would probably want some sort of sensitivity analysis.

Possibly a report of the effect that changing spring rates does, ride height, and other tangible settings.

Holy crap! Did you know Windows 7 does FEA through paintbrush!?

If you do a search, you will find that solidworks is not even used for 3d modeling, I believe there is a thread where someone was able to design the chassis from a 2d sketcher using a 3 dimensional...

Has anyone tried the prone position with the helmet modified to act as an impact attenuator?

This way your vehicle weighs less without a driver!

So I then decided to increase the roll center height in hopes of minimizing the distance from RC to CG, but inadvertently increasing the distance from the ground.

As a result the rear jacking...

The wheel lift resembles this picture:

exFSAE: I am going to perform those calcs you suggested for skid pad, that seems like a good way to start troubleshooting.

If the forces are okay, which they seem to be behaving appropriately (to...

sorry exFSAE, I missed your post. I am going to get some sleep and then re-read everything and reply.


In case I have the model set up incorrectly, I have proposed that we subject the vehicle to...

Silente: That seems to have partially fixed the problem! I ended up disabling the dampers all together.

Unfortunately I am still getting wheel lift, but not as severe. I hope it is because of my...

The car is pulling approximately 1.3 lateral g's

We have assumed a 10 inch cg with instant centers located 5 inches above the ground. I have the front RC at 1.9 inches above ground with 1.5 in...

I have built my pretend FSAE vehicle in CarSim, and am noticing that the inside rear tire and sometimes the front tire lifts off during corner exit. The data shows that the vehicle is...

I went to the Rouelle seminar in Lansing, MI last year. I stayed at the Howard Johnson which I believe was one of the closest hotels to campus. It was also very affordable.

flavorPacket: did the bird tell you if the dampers will have remote reservoirs?

And tell that bird to stop pooping on my black car.

By adding caster you affect the weight transfer and the camber curve characteristics. So I would say you do deviate from your SLA, assuming what you define as the stock design point.

I am still trying to get a hold of drawings of the Jupiter 7R's. I called Kevin Rissie himself, and he assured me they would be in my mailbox a couple hours later....


Its been a few weeks. WTF?...

it sounds like mustard, im hungry

What is the correct way of calculating the amount of anti-dive?

Is it the SVSA height over the length (from tire patch to IC)? Or the angle of the CG from the tire patch compared to the angle...

The wheel rate is computed based off the spring rate of your tires, the motion ratio of your bell crank, and the springs connected to the dampers. (Also the sprung and un-sprung weights)

So I...
