Concept Design Report (Rack Attack) Dr. Christopher Kang, Professor Robert Shaefer, Professor Tsu-Chin Tsao TA: Matthew Gerber Team #17 Gregory Caguimbal Thomas Chun Hunter Jones Fadi Rafeedi Samuel MAE-162D: Mechanical Product Design-I Winter 2016 Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering Department University of California, Los Angeles February 17th, 2016 Figure 1: Team 17; team members pictured from left to right: Greg Caguimbal, Thomas Chun, Fadi Rafeedi, Samuel, Hunter Jones Abstract The purpose of this report is to walk readers through the conceptual design development of an autonomous transporter that carries a golf ball and shoots it as far as possible. High and low- level design requirements are outlined to discuss intended functionality of the transporter. Preliminary design concepts are presented. An Objective Tree and a Pairwise Comparison Chart are then used to select the best concept based on desired qualities. CAD models of the chosen design are shown. Preliminary calculations for the drive and launch systems are formed and discussed to prove the robot’s ability to succeed at accomplishing the proposed task. iii Table of Contents Abstract .............................................................................................................................. iii List of Figures ..................................................................................................................... v List of Symbols .................................................................................................................. vi List of Tables....................................................................................................................... x 1.
