Abstract

This chapter suggests ways to establish design structural load sets for the cruise condition (including remarks on transport of the solar car by trailer) and emergency maneuvers. These load sets can be used by the designers to calculate the loads in the members of the suspension, steering, and frame of the car. The chapter also provides some guidance for the design of the structure under collision loadings.

Fußnoten
1
Chap. 8, Solar Racer: Specification, points out the need to study the route over which and the conditions in which the car will operate.
 
2
Cracking of the shell of Clarkson’s 1999 solar car occurred in exactly this way.
 
3
This event has been studied extensively. See, for example, Oluwole(2012) and Mohammadzadeh and Haidar (2009).
 
4
The reaction time could be that used by Emmelman (1987), 0.8 s. Even through this includes the delay in the steering system it is at least a place to start having some basis in experience.
 
5
Lateral slip occurs because of side forces when cornering (see Chap. 21).
 
6
This is not true in the special case of fatigue, which causes local failure.
 
7
In addition to documenting the protection of the driver from the roll over and impact cases mentioned, the reports must include analyses of the tires, wheels, braking, steering, and suspension systems.
