Good to see some Formula Student India discussion here.
As Kevin pointed out that this is a fairly common packaging issue that teams have been encountering for years. A lot of the teams have come...
Hi Prateek,
There are multiple posts about Ackermann on this forum. Some of them asking the same question as you. In fact, there are a few with you asking the same question, you have replies on...
Folks,
Some Formula Student Alumni and Baja Alumni from India putting together a meeting at RV College in Bangalore this weekend along with the organizing team of Formula Student India and Baja...
Samadhan,
Thanks. I hope my comments do not deter you from asking more questions in the future. That was not my intention, if fact my intention is quite the opposite. The only thing I wanted to...
Samadhan,
Firstly, your question. The rule says that if you have a bent tube (that is not one of the roll hoops) then you need to support the point on the bend where the tube deviates the most...
This is great news for teams in India.
I did this seminar 3 years ago and it completely changed my perspective about Formula Student and Motorsport Engineering in general. I would highly recommend...
Haha. Nicely put Geoff.
Yes, what you see is an issue sometimes specially with teams that have returned from visiting a competition for the first time. It is very easy to get overwhelmed by...
I always shiver then I suddenly see traffic on this thread, that is justified because once and only one there has been good news. It is really sad to see this happen over and over again.
I...
It saddens me to say read all of this that has been said here, though something constructive does seem to come out from the end of this.
@ftorque: Although I was not there at the competition I can...
This attitude does not work here.
Let us know what you have been trying, what back ground research have you done (read: google) and then ask for assistance when you are stuck at a more specific...
FYI
I have attended a Seminar a couple of years ago, and I personally really recommend it. It is a must to seminar for anyone planning to work in the automotive engineering industry, specially if...
Congratulations to Orion Racing (KJ Somaiya), that is a fantastic showing at FS Germany.
A new benchmark has been set :-)
@Pradeep: I have a couple of things in mind. I'll send you an e-mail about it.
There is whole branch of Mechanical Engineering here called design for abuse. :-)
Hi,
I did not get you? Are you asking a question?
I'd suggest in your brake calculations not to involve downforce, your speeds in Formula Student are low anyway and the speed (hence downforce)...
Gaanja asks more relevant questions and Rex is correct that these are exactly the same issues team abroad have faced. So if we can stop starting every sentence with because I am from India and have...
Some how I am not shocked though.
This is really a step back for the Indian teams.
There is no excuse to become worse. Something needs to be done.
There is some activity on the a FSAE Indian...
I really do not think we need anything radical like common teams or a ban Supra etc. These things are going to cause more problems than solutions.
The key is to really read this thread and...
Hi,
No one is going to really help you out with a question like this. Mainly because no one can directly give you these figures. It depends a lot on you targets and design.
As yourself this: my...
PVC tubes with some quick set expansion joints (Em-seal), and lots of duct tape.
Also, useful in physically visualizing the load paths/deformations specially in torsional load.
Tangent:
Wow! that link went through without moderation. Since when did things change round here?
Big Bird post had helped me make the decision a few years ago.

Having said that packaging was still the most important factor for me, as it...
Hi,
Static Structural is of your primary interest, since you want to put loads in your chassis structure in a static state. You can go through ANSYS documentation to see how exactly they are...
Hi Aman,
It would be great if you share with us the efforts you have made with the analysis of your chassis on ANSYS. If you can show us the point at which you are stuck during analysis or the...
