The concept for the Formula #91 car renewed
a "keep it simple" stratety. The use of Nastran
software for FEA (finite element analysis) provided virtual
rigidity and strength testing of several frame and suspension
combinations. With an emphasis on space efficiency and simplicity,
a space frame was designed with more efficient side pods.
This new design took home the Best Design Award and second
place overall (despite a transmission failure). |
