Structures Team

The Structures team focuses on designing, developing, and optimizing mechanical components and the vehicle's chassis, including the aero body design, seating and roll cage design, and structural crash analysis. Aerodynamics has a significant impact on the vehicle's endurance. The team will also work on optimizing the vehicle's aerodynamics using CAD and CFD software.

Team Positions:

Mechanical Design Engineer (x4): This role focuses on 3D modeling and designing the chassis and structural members of the vehicle. Responsibilities include conducting stress analysis, finite element analysis (FEA), and modal (vibrational) analysis on structural members, assemblies, and components using ANSYS, as well as performing aerodynamics analysis using CFD. Proficiency in creating detailed 2D drawings for manufacturing and developing bills of materials is required. Welding and machining experience is a plus.
