FORMULA SAE MICHIGAN2014 SAE PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

Dear Formula SAE® Participants and Organizers:

Welcome to the Formula SAE competition at Michigan International

Speedway in Brooklyn, Michigan.

Formula SAE is steeped in tradition and competition. Now in its 36th year,

Formula SAE provides the real-world challenges of systems engineering,

design and problem solving, along with the teaming challenges of

collaboration and cooperation. In short, Formula SAE, along with all of

the SAE Collegiate Design Series™ competitions, provides the skills and

experiences needed for a well-rounded engineering education.

In addition to learning, Formula SAE also provides a unique form of

competition. This week, collegiate engineering students from several

nations will compete in a series of static and dynamic events designed

to challenge their engineering, problem-solving and teamwork skills. The

students will work hard and compete to win. Some will earn top honors,others will not. But all will leave here winners because they will be better

engineering students.

Good luck to all who are competing in this event. Also, I want to thank

everyone for their hard work, support, volunteerism and participation.

The experiences and learning you gain this weekend will last throughout

your lives.

Sincerely,

Daniel M. Hancock

President, SAE International

CONCEPT OF THE COMPETITION

The Formula SAE® Series competitions challenge teams of university undergraduate and

graduate students to conceive, design, fabricate and compete with small, formula style,

competition vehicle. To give teams the maximum design flexibility and the freedom to express

their creativity and imaginations there are very few restrictions on the overall vehicle design.

Teams typically spend eight to twelve months designing, building, testing and preparing

their vehicles before a competition. The competitions themselves give teams the chance to

demonstrate and prove both their creation and their engineering skills in comparison to teams

from other universities around the world. Registered for this event are 120 teams from colleges

and universities. The end result is a great experience for young engineers in a meaningful

engineering project as well as the opportunity of working in a dedicated team effort.

For the purpose of this competition, the students are to assume that a manufacturing firm has

engaged them to produce a prototype car for evaluation as a production item. The intended

sales market is the nonprofessional weekend competitor. Therefore, the car must have very high

performance in terms of its acceleration, braking, and handling qualities. The car must be low

in cost, easy to maintain, and reliable. In addition, the car’s marketability is enhanced by other

factors such as aesthetics, comfort and use of common parts. The manufacturing firm is planning

to produce four (4) cars per day for a limited production run. The challenge to the design team is

to design and fabricate a prototype car that best meets these goals and intents. Each design will

be compared and judged with other competing designs to determine the best overall car.

Over the course of three days, the cars are judged in a series of static and dynamic events

including: technical inspection, cost, presentation, and engineering design, solo performance

trials, and high performance track endurance. These events are scored to determine how well

the car performs. In each event, the manufacturing firm has specified minimum acceptable

performance levels that are reflected in the scoring equations.

STATIC EVENTS:

Design Report: The students explain their constructive solutions to a jury of experts from the

automotive and motorsport industries in report and discussion. The concept of the design isto evaluate the engineering effort that went into the design of the car and how the engineer-

ing meets the intent of the market. The car that illustrates the best use of engineering to meet

the design goals and the best understanding of the design by the team members will win the

design event.

Cost Report: The students are to assume that a serial production of 1000 cars a year will fol-

low the prototype. The cost calculation is discussed with a jury based on a report. The objec-

tive of the event is for the participants to learn and understand the manufacturing techniques

and processes of some of the components that they have chosen to purchase rather than

fabricate themselves.

Presentation: The objective is to evaluate the team’s ability to develop and deliver a compre-hensive business case that will convince the executives of a fake manufacturing firm that the

team’s design best meets the demands of the amateur weekend competition market and that

it can be profitably manufactured and marketed.

DYNAMIC EVENTS:

Acceleration: The cars are evaluated on their accelerating

abilities from a standing start over a distance of 75 meters.

Autocross: The objective is to evaluate the car ’s maneuver-

ability and handling qualities on a tight course without the

hindrance of competing cars. The course will combine the

performance features of acceleration, braking and cornering

into one event. The results of the Autocross scores determine

the starting order for endurance.

Skid-Pad: The objective is to measure the car’s cornering

ability on a flat surface while making a constant-radius turn.

The course will be a pair of concentric circles in shape of the

number 8; the cars demonstrate how good lateral forces can

be absorbed (up to 1.4g).

Ford Endurance: Over a distance of 22 km the cars have to

prove their durability under long-term conditions. Accelera-

tion, speed, handling, dynamics, fuel efficiency, reliability –

the cars have to prove it all.

KA-RaceIng two cars, one passion! KA-RaceIng is a team of about 65 motivatedstudents building two cars every season one powered by a combustion engine, theother one by an electric powertrain. The KIT13c is our combustion car from theseason of 2013. It is based on the experience of having designed six combustionand three electric cars since the foundation of the team in 2006.

As we are building two cars, we develop several parts which meet the requirements of

both cars in order to improve testing time and manufacturing effort. Moreover we aimto combine the best of new ideas and tested concepts in both cars.

The KIT13c is powered by a self-developed turbocharged 2-cylinder engine withdirect injection that has been developed and improved since March 2011 in orderto meet the requirements of a formula student engine. The chassis of the car is alight weight CFRP monocoque combined with a tubular rear space frame and anaerodynamic package.

We would like to thank all our supporters for making it possible to participate in thisgreat event and are looking forward to an exciting competition in Michigan.

THE DIFFERENCE

BETWEEN A DREAMER

AND AN ENGINEER

Good luck Formula teams!

F2014 represents the ninth Formula SAE® vehicle produced by USF Racing sincebeginning the FSAE series in 2005, and is the fourth evolution of our currentdesign concept. The following goals were created by the team preceding thedesign process: improvement of component serviceability, initial development ofan aerodynamics package, and a 10 lb weight reduction (without wings) from ourprevious model, F2013. We placed an emphasis on validating design simulationthrough real-world testing. Based off of the successes of previous models, F2014

runs a naturally aspirated Suzuki LT-R 450cc single cylinder engine, steel axles,and 10 inch wheels. Integrating last year’s chassis packaging with improvementsin the suspension and engine systems, the introduction of an aerodynamics pack-age as well as building on a successful history in static events, we hope to havecreated a car which continues to perform aggressively across all events in theFSAE competition.

Everyone at USF Racing would like to take the time to thank all of our sponsors fortheir continued support of our team. Every donation of time, service, knowledge,and funding brings us one step closer to the checkered flag.

In October 2012 a team of 65 young and motivated students started to developthe 10th Formula Student Combustion car of the TUfast Racing Team. After a lotof hard work we were proud to roll out the nb013 out of our workshop in June2013. The challenge for this year was to reduce weight even more, aiming forless than 190kg with an aero package. Therefore we implemented some innova-tive designs e.g. for the rims and the driveshafts for further weight reduction. Thefull aero package is also a first in TUfast history. So now we are excited to com-pete with all the other teams and see if we did a good job. And after a hard dayfull of work, we would be happy to chat with some of you guys about our favoritetopic and have a good time. Just come over and have a beer with us.

Having developed a fully functional prototype in 2013, this year the team hasfocused on improving the reliability of the vehicle, by optimizing the manufacturingtime to allow more track tests. Also, the team has achieved a 12% weight reduc-tion, and the mass distribution has changed for better performance: the CG is ata lower height, and rearwards, and the system components are more centered inthe vehicle. We stick to our tested YZ450F engine, wich we used the last year forthe first time. Using the experience and knowledge acquired with the 2013 proto-

type, the engine setup for this year is more efficient with a new intake system andengine mapping optimizations. Also, the electronics have been designed for easydebugging and setting of the system.

We are proud to present one of the best prototypes since the team creation in2005. The Team is very grateful with all our sponsors, that make possible therealization of this project.

The 2014 Navy Formula SAE team (NR-14) is a refinement of Navy’s 2013 car,focusing on a “back-to-basics” mind-set. NR-14’s goal was to incorporate thelessons learned from past-year’s teams to advance the general design of the2013 car. We worked to improve manufacturability and lessen complexity bydeveloping a simple, easily repaired, and easily diagnosed vehicle. Previous yearsof Navy Racing have utilized advanced methods of shifting, such as pneumaticcylinders and electronic solenoids; however, NR-14 chose to employ a basic bar

linkage from the driver’s hand, back to the transmission, keeping shifting sim-ple. In addition, NR-14 worked to improve the lines of communication betweenthe team and USNA’s machine shop to discuss the creation of parts. This helpedensure there would not be any challenges from transferring CAD designs throughto manufacturing. In the case of complex components, including carbon-fiberA-arms and additional systems components, NR-14 made sure to develop eachcomponent prior to introducing them to the car. All parts were initially lab-testedand systems components were isolated from the functionality of the car.

The 2014 USAFA Formula SAE team has constructed S1.4, the fourth versionof the S-series car. The philosophy set by the 2011 team to constantly improveon the same fundamental concept of small and lightweight has lead to what isthe best car in USAFA history. With a reliable KTM 525 engine, and the mindsetof constant improvement, the USAF is represented well by 11 highly motivatedcadets.

This year’s car is approximately forty pounds lighter than last years. In the originalplan set out by the 2010 team, this years main goal was to improve the reliabilityof S1.3 while saving additional weight.

Major modifications to S1.3 include a new differential, improved suspension parts,new brake parts, a smaller tire size, lighter frame, form fitted foam seat, and newintake/exhaust system. With these new parts and a fresh batch of firsties (seniorsat a military academy), the 2014 USAFA Formula team is excited to compete!

Our focus for 2014 is to improve upon our designs from previous years by analyz-ing the failures and successes of past vehicles. We designed a more reliable anddrivable vehicle while adding additional data logging and processing capabilities,to improve our tuning ability and allow our vehicle to serve as a test-bed for futureyears. We also designed the vehicle with the goal of promoting design for manu-facture and assembly, to reduce time spent on these tasks, and give us moretime to tune and train in the car. The team additionally continued to work towardsits goal of enabling amateur drivers to take full advantage of the car’s potential.Through the year, the team used computer simulations, subsystem testing, andfull-scale data logging to study and improve vehicle performance.

The 2014 car is the latest evolution of a platform that started in 2011. Our mainfocus this year was to create a better car by first becoming a better team. Wecommitted to an aggressive timeline and ended up finishing the chassis in recordtime, having more competition ready engines than we’ve ever had, the most dynotime in years, and more testing than ever before.

We again chose a space frame of 4130 with bonded carbon fiber structuralpanels and an inline 4-cyl from a Yamaha R6. The suspension geometry stayedthe same but the system shed significant unsprung weight. The team now fullyutilizes brand new MoTeC engine control and telemetry hardware/software whichaided suspension and powertrain tuning. The intake, differential support, tires,and cooling all improved significantly for this year’s car.

We want to give a big thanks to all of our sponsors, friends at the University,alumni, and supporters for helping us meet our goals and achieve our potential!

Making its way to the 2014 Formula SAE Michigan Competition is our very ownNUS FSAE Race Car, NUS-R14. The design of this car took reference from theprevious car, NUS-R13, with the major change being the new engine.

R14 uses an inline four cylinders CBR600RR engine, changing from the V-twintwo cylinders Aprilia SXV550 used in R13. The CBR600RR was chosen for itsreliability, serviceability and responsive power delivery. A dry sump with thin flat

oil pan was designed for the lubrication system in order to lower the position ofthe engine in the chassis. This is done to achieve a race car with lower Centre ofGravity.

We would like to thank the university and all the sponsors as this car will not bepossible without their support.

With that, we hope R14 would be a strong contender in the FSAE Michigan Com-petition where we would showcase our year’s worth of hard work.

The University of Toronto presents UT14 for the 2014 Formula SAE Michigancompetition.

The UT14 entry marks UofT’s 16th year at competition. The vehicle follows aphilosophy of design for manufacture, offering an optimal balance betweenperformance and cost. This mentality has provided distinctly new design methodsfor the 2014 vehicle. A wooden jig, pocketed a-arms, and aluminum cast uprightshave served to drastically decrease our manufacturing time without compromisefor performance. This is our second installment of the 10” wheel vehicle poweredby the Honda TRX450 single cylinder engine. The chassis has been lengthenedby 2 inches and the driver has been angled back to increase driver comfort. Theefficient packaging of all components over a 23kg chassis allows us to achieveToronto’s highest stiffness to weight ratio.

By adhering to our design philosophy the team was able to complete significanttrack testing and gain substantial driving experience. The end result is a light-weight, drivable and simple vehicle.

The Panther Racing Team is divided into six main groups: Chassis & Suspension,Powertrain, Drivetrain, Electronics & Data Acquisition, Ergonomics, and Aero-dynamics. This structure allows each design group to operate in parallel whilemaintaining inter-group communication to ensure that each system complementsthe others and strives for a common set of design goals. With the growing use ofaerodynamic devices on top-twenty finishers, it was decided to pursue perfor-mance gains through aerodynamics. In addition, an evaluation of the competitionshowed that a sub-200 kg car weight was standard among top-placing steel tubeframe 4-cylinder cars without wings. Thus, a target weight was chosen to be 200kg (441 lbm) without the aerodynamic package, a feasible 6% weight reductionfrom previous Panther Racing vehicles. Our 2014 prototype has a steel tubespace frame chassis with a 4-cylinder engine and a full aerodynamics pack-age. This combination was selected due to the low cost and ease of manufactureof the chassis, the high power output of a 4-cylinder powertrain, and the conclu-sive laptime reductions seen by increasing downforce in laptime simulation.

The 2014 Oklahoma State University car, designated VALKYRIE, was designed toexemplify the successes of previous generations while building upon the founda-tions of previous lessons learned. The car was created, not only with the technicalrules in mind, but with the intent of creating a business friendly car that would beeasy to manufacture and remain affordable to the everyday autocrosser.

At the heart of this year’s car lies a Yamaha YFZ450R single-cylinder ATV engine.The power supplied by this engine will propel the car to a maximum vehicle speedof 116 kph. The engine would be nothing without a frame to propel. This year’sframe is a tubular space frame made out of 4130 steel of the round and squarevarieties. VALKYRIE was designed to float like a butterfly on a double unequallength A-Arm suspension attached to both, the front and the rear. VALKYRIE alsorelies upon four 18x6-10 R25B Hoosier tires to lay the power down to the asphaltas she rounds corners and flies down straightaways.

Manufacturer-purchased parts aside, all other aspects of VALKYRIE were hand-crafted and machined with the utmost attention to detail by the members of theOkstate Racing Team.
