156A Finals Week

Overview of Status

• Risk reduction complete and presented to the class.

Accomplishments from Previous Week

• Risk reduction presentation completed

• Individual component analyses completed

Goals for Next Week

• Work on fuel circuit design (Jack and Jason)

• Work on spark cut circuit design (Charlie and Kevin)

• Check on TR-19 car status (Charlie and Jack)

Sponsor Comments

• None

Instructor Comments

• None

Student Comments

• Consider sensor dynamics and high frequency noise in control design. This was implemented to a small degree already in the controller, but this can be improved after the initial testing phase (March 16th, zoom meeting)

Risks and Areas of Concern

• Knowing the status of TR-19 is critical for the next stages of this project. If the car needs a significant amount of work to run, there will be a long lead time before the tuning stage of the design can begin.

Resources

• Milliken and Milliken. Race Car Vehicle Dynamics

• Professor Thomas R. Bewley. Numerical Renaissance

Schedule

• The next milestone is to check on the status of TR-19 and begin maintenance and repairs to return the car to a running state.
