  • Chassis Design for the Global Formula Racing Team

    Creator:
    Powell, Zach L.
    Abstract:
    For the 2019 season, a new chassis layup was designed that is much stronger than in previous years, yet only slightly heavier. Compared to the baseline steel tube frame, the 2019 chassis has safety factors of about 110% for most zones. Also, a new impact attenuator was designed that absorbs...

  • Analysis, design, and implementation of a Formula SAE cooling system

    Creator:
    Theroff, Zachary
    Abstract:
    This project consists of the analysis, design, and manufacturing of the 2016 cooling system for Global Formula Racing’s combustion vehicle. Several water configurations were examined, using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to estimate airflow and heat transfer calculations in MATLAB to estimate heat rejection through each concept. Data used to perform...

  • The Effect of Varying Parameters on Web Vibration Analysis Accuracy

    Creator:
    Gladson, Kathleen Y.
    Abstract:
    The SpiderHarp is a bio-inspired electronic musical instrument that uses a localization algorithm developed at Oregon State University to translate plucks of its strings into musical notes. This localization algorithm was inspired by the way spiders locate prey in their webs. The SpiderHarp frame, sensors, and web design are also...

  • Ergonomic Analysis of the Global Formula Racing Driver Interface

    Creator:
    Davis, Sean M.
    Abstract:
    Between Oregon State University and DHBW Ravensberg, Global Formula Racing produces two Formula style vehicles every year for competition. This thesis has served as a pre-development project in the ergonomics and driver interface of the team's vehicles. This project will determine the position of the seat back, steering wheel, and...

  • Portland Cement Mortars and their Constitutent Materials

    Creator:
    Clark, Roy Ross and Luse, Fred Deininger
    Abstract:
    The rapid advance of concrete engineering in the West has made necessary reliable information as to the strength qualities of the most important marketable, sands In the eastern states, theory and practice have advanced hand in hand, by the investigation of the constituent materials of concrete. In the West, no...

  • Wing Flutter Suppression via Distributed Electric Propulsion

    Creator:
    Bamberger, Joshua
    Abstract:
    This research aims to demonstrate the viability of actively controlled distributed-electric propulsion as a method to postpone flutter in high aspect-ratio elastic wings. A semi-wing on a spring mount with two propellers powered by electric motors, mounted at alternate pitch angles relative to the chord line, was used as the...

  • Carbon fiber chassis design & testing

    Creator:
    Shannon, Eric
    Abstract:
    OSU’s Global Formula Racing (GFR) team creates two carbon fiber chassis each year, one for combustion engine powered the other electric. These two vehicles compete in SAE sanctioned competitions teams and in order to enter they both have to provide design and testing information to prove the vehicle is safe...

    Abstract:
    0.1 Purpose of Report During my time on this project, I have written two reports. My SAE22 ePowertrain report details last year's design, the design process, design changes, and manufacturing in extreme detail. The capstone course report will be useful for future students looking to educate themselves on everything that...

  • Experimental Investigation of Near-Critical Carbon Dioxide in Microchannels for High Flux Cooling Applications

    Creator:
    Travers, Kristen
    Abstract:
    With the continued decrease in size and subsequent increase in power of computer processors, thermal management in electronics is becoming more important than ever before. The chip heat densities are reaching new peaks (> 100 W cm-2) that current cooling methods are not able to keep up with. However, some...

    Creator:
    Zuck, Austin L.
    Abstract:
    The Formula Society of Automotive Engineers (FSAE) has provided a platform for teams like Oregon State’s own Global Formula Racing Team (GFR) to produce a formula style race car and compete with other schools across the world. The GFR team has used the same carbon fiber monocoque chassis since the...
