    CHASSIS AND IMPACT ATTENUATOR DESIGN FOR FORMULA STUDENT RACE CAR MECH 5825M Professional Project Chassis and Impact Attenuator design for Formula student Race car Ahmed Oshinibosi Project Supervisor: Prof. D.C Barton 30th August 2012 AKNOWLEGDEMENT Firstly, I would like to appreciate the effort of my supervisor, Professor David Barton who is the head of school of mechanical engineering for his invaluable contribution towards the successful completion of this project. Secondly, I am indebted to my employer, Tallent Automotive Limited who did not only provide financial assistance to me in order to pursue this postgraduate Master’s degree, but also gave me the permission to utilise the company’s software packages to carry out this project. I also want to use this opportunity to thank the faculty of engineering for awarding me the International Excellence scholarship which also contributed towards my tuition fees. ABSTRACT Generally, in the automotive industry, weight reduction, cost of engineering design and reduction in vehicle development cycle time are becoming increasingly focused on. In order to tackle this, Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) is popularly being used to lead design process. This is more efficient than just using CAE as a verification tool. In the design of the F15 chassis, suitable Finite Element Analysis (FEA) optimisation techniques have been adopted from the early design stage. The design problem in view of weight reduction and increasing torsional stiffness has been solved by means of topology optimisation and also by applying gauge optimisation at the later stage of the design phase to optimise the size of structural members of the chassis.

High time that an internationally success- ful concept such as Formula Student should be held in Ger- many – hosted by the Verein Deutscher Ingenieure (VDI), of course. 41 teams from 11 different countries from Russia to Canada and Germany to Australia will be participating at the first Formula Student Germany from the 3rd to the 6th of August 2006. By taking part at this worldwide design competition the students supplement their education with the attractive task of building a race car. This experience is invaluable for their professional careers. Consequently, at this weekend in August more than 600 highly motivated students will be coming to the Hockenheimring to present their prototypes and face the competition from the other teams. The use and gain of engineering knowledge is one of the main issues at Formula Student. However, what should be specially mentioned, is that the participation at Formula Student Germany demands a high level of initiative, motivation and team spirit from the students. Learning these and other soft skills make them interdisciplinary and holistic young engineers. Dear visitors, in Hockenheim you will experience motor sport from a different angle.

  • Dutch Team's Electric Car Wins Formula Student for Second Year in a Row 13 July 2015
    Dutch team's electric car wins Formula Student for second year in a row 13 July 2015 were at Silverstone on 8-12 July. There were 135 teams in total, with 49 from the UK and teams from as far afield as Australia, Turkey and Ukraine. Stijn Pennings, Team Leader for Formula Student Team Delft, said: "All the hard work over the past year has paid off and the whole team has gained invaluable hands- on experience on what is involved in developing a car from start to finish. "I think the key to our win is the extremely light and agile nature of our car. This year we trimmed the weight of the drivetrain and also had a one-piece monocoque. "We worked well as a team and I am incredibly proud and happy with our win – particularly winning A team of 60 engineering students from Delft by such a big margin." University of Technology (TU Delft) has stormed to victory at this year's Institution of Mechanical Engineers' Formula Student competition. Formula Student challenges student engineers to design, build and race a single seat racing car in one year. The competition is composed of eight challenges and events with a separate amount of points allocated for each. These include, among others, tests to assess cars' acceleration, endurance, fuel economy, as well as the design and business case each of the teams has prepared. Team Delft claimed the prize at Silverstone this weekend with a total score of 909.3 out of a total score of 1,000 points.
