The administration division consists of communications, human resources, industry relations, and finance teams. Each team is led by a Business Director, and we are actively looking for students to join our teams to aid in our club outreach, recruitment, funding, sponsorships, member experiences, and more!
The Aerodynamics team design the aero package in accommodation with the chassis and high voltage components. Tasks include performing cost analysis on difference manufacturing processes and materials, fabricate wing elements by hand, and designing and applying livery to aerodynamic monocoque to not only showcase our team but our sponsors and the university as a whole.
The Chassis team focuses on producing vehicle chassis, the most critical static component, to meet rulebook specifications. The team is looking for anyone who wants to learn.
The Digital Systems team was created in Spring 2021 with a focus of having our race car drive without a driver. To do so, the car will be fit with a very inexpensive system that utilizes Machine Learning. The team is looking for advanced programmers who can learn libraries and frameworks fairly quickly, and somewhat familiar with ML.
The objective of the Drivetrain team is to build a powerful drivetrain system which will efficiently provide power to the wheels. Their additional focus in the project is developing the pedal block, braking, and braking force. The team is looking for members who are experienced or are willing to learn CAD modeling and CNC machining.
The Grounded Low Voltage team designs systems which include safety, status monitoring, low voltage power, and the driver interaction system. This team works closely with the other electrical teams, and programming and circuitry knowledge is recommended.
The High Voltage team has multiple projects. The accumulator (battery assembly) design and fitting of electrical components include the battery management system, master switches, bus bars, and more. The team also focuses on the cooling design with radiators and cable connections between the accumulator and motor driver. For this team, entry level CAD knowledge is highly recommended.
The Suspension team's objective is to design an operational suspension system with shock absorbers. Their focuses include toe, camber, caster, steering angle, and wheel rate. Recommended skill sets include SolidWorks modeling and simulation as well as CNC machining.
