Philip | Took inventory on bolts (need to do locknuts Reviewed manufacturing plan for axle Started on full dynamics assembly (procrastinated over winter break)

Suspension | |
Andrew | Trained a few ergo members on manual mills in the morning Drafted wishbone manufacturing plan in the afternoon reviewed suspension assembly issues with jacob steering arm location is currently 1-2 inches too low. Got permission from Luis to move it up and also informed Gerard of the change. current rear tie rod setup is undrivable bc 1) it's too long, causing large toe in at resting position 2) it's diagonal (when viewed top-down, meaning that toe in will further increase during wheel loads (up to 13°). We brainstormed a solution which I will finalize during the week.

Kayla | finished gcode for the frame jig plate short manufacturing plan for the plate done (not needed) gcode practice, read suspension stuff on the book

Sami | |
Harshit | Sami and I found out the grooving tool in CAM doesn't work so I found a new tool that should work Sent the new tool to Nathan and got it ordered Began the manufacturing plan for the uprights and had it looked over by Jacob Had Jacob check over the CAM for the upright

Steering | |
Luis | Finished the plate calculations for the rack. Also, set up a meeting with Nathan. |
Anh | |
Katy | Condensed next-gen research from winter break into powerpoint Worked on manufacturing plan for steering hub mount plate Read about 6-bar steering systems and linkage optimization

Frame | |
Kaitlyn | |
Josh | Looked into simming frame on SolidWorks but ran into meshing issues that caused stress concentrations in weird areas Talked to Jacob about simming fundamentals and best practices Will continue to experiment with simming through an assembly with the frame tabs and also with impact non-linear dynamic test Shifted to new project of developing our own frame design to run sims on
|
Noah | Researching/practicing simming on Solidworks, ran into outlier cases of stress concentrations, looking into h-adapative meshing and general mesh refinement Statics lecture/talk with Jacob Been simming like crazy over the weekend and Monday night ( i am going insane holy moly )
