  1. SAE Baja Senior Design Project Status Update 1 • Suspension • Peter Morabito • Michael Paliga • Brian Ross • Drivetrain • Kenny Elliot • Patrick Mooney • Dylan Quinn • Frame • Dan D’Amico • Curtis May • Greg Schafran

  2. Drivetrain Double reduction Gear Box 8:1 GearBox Ratio 30.8:1 Intial Drive 7.2:1 Final Drive Gaged GX9 CVT System

  3. Drivetrain 40 degree+ hill climb capability 34 mph max speed Next steps • Choose Differential • Determine size of phase 2 gear • Begin design for shafts, bearings, • and housing

  4. Frame Team What We Have Done • Analyze last year’s car • Familiarize ourselves with the SAE rulebook • Develop basic car specifications • Draw a preliminary roll cage in SolidWorks • Incorporate front suspension mounting • points

  5. Frame Team Future Plans • Refine and analyze front end and roll cage • Check driver clearances • Establish rear mounting points and drivetrain configuration • Perform FE analysis

  6. Suspension Team • Front Suspension • Selected front mounting points based on previous design. • No significant changes necessary since there was no known issues with this design. • Drew points in solid works for frame group to base design off of.

  7. Suspension Team • Rear Suspension • Basing our design off of the 2012 setup with some changes to the dynamics. • Keeping the rear trailing arm setup but eliminating the dynamic toe. • This will provide a more reliable car while optimizing performance • Next Steps • Learning and understanding Optimum K suspension software. • Import rough rear design points and begin analysis to optimize the suspension kinematics.
