This master’s thesis deals with use of central spring unit at Formula Student car. Thanks to CFD simulations, aerodynamics properties of the car was found out according to different position of suspended mass. Within kinematic design of both axles a parameters of spring unit of both axles were defined as well. Whole design was made to increase overall performance of the car thanks to the aerodynamic forces.

Master’s thesis is focused on a design of front uprights for Dragon 8 racing car of TU Brno Racing Formula Student team. This thesis follows up the bachelor’s thesis called “Race Car Front Wheel Carrier Design”. Discussion about team’s recent upright and component designs is followed by a model creation with use of topology optimization. Final geometry is simulated in FEA software. Design of the upright is then compared to the previous designs and also to its substitute produced with milling machining process.

This master thesis represents a step forward in vehicle dynamics of TU Brno Racing Formula Student team from Brno University of Technology monoposts. A detailed research focused on light automotive wheels. Its main part is to design and make a composite wheel for a formula monopost Dragon 9. The wheel design was formed from the rules side, car packaging, forces acting and limits of composite parts production. There’s a collection of CAD documentation of wheel designs, moulds and connected fixtures. The designed moulds for hollow carbon fiber wheels were manufactured. The technology in making of composite wheels is described in detail. Also, the ways of testing the wheel before a straight use on a race car were designed. There are several wheel prototypes made as an outcome of this thesis. The wheel design is reviewed in terms of functionality and manufacturing side of things.

Design of braking system for Formula Student vehicle. Braking system is one of the most important control system in every vehicle, even more in race car application. Only perfectly working braking system is capable bring the best results. In this diploma thesis are list of used parts with basic force calculation, design of pedal assembly in accordance with the rules of Formula Student, options for measuring and dataloging from ride for next development.

This master’s thesis deals with the design and manufacture of a heat exchanger with polymeric hollow fibers for a Formula Student vehicle. The work can be divided into three parts. The first part contains a review of heat transfer and heat exchangers, the second part deals with polymeric fiber heat exchangers design and manufacture of of polymeric hollow fibers heat exchanger with a heat exchanger for a Formula Student vehicle. The last part deals with the comparison of polymeric hollow fibers heat exchanger with the original aluminum heat exchanger and the evaluation of the measurement results.

Pavel Chalupa Torsional Stifness Analysis of Formula Student Frame Modification DW, IAE, 2010, 66 str., 66 obr. This thesis is concerned with a calculation analysis of a frame construction for Formula Student. The Base design of this construction is modeled in computer program ProEngineer. In next step the model is transfered to calculation software Ansys. The analysis is made by finite element method in torion and bend there. The calculation of torsional stiffness is made of resultant values. Finally, the results are compared with previous frame versions.

Martin Lhota Formula Student Front Chassis Part Design DW, IAE, 2011, 75 pp, 62 pics The aim of the thesis is to suggest a suitable configuration of Formula Student Car’s front part of a frame according to current rules of SAE organization in the Formula Student competition. In this proposal low weight, manufacturability and sufficient torsion rigidity were preferred, whereas previously suggested solutions were reflected. At first there is presented a list of important SAE rules for the construction of front part followed by a short recherché of development of the constructional solution of frames and frames suitable for Formula Students car. Secondly there is described process during frame construction design and its computational model for the analysis which simulates torsion with the support of MKP system. Gained results and some parameters of the frame are compared with similar version of the frame construction which was suggested and made for the first Formula Student Car of our University. Moreover, there is also presented summary of suggested frame and also recommendation with possible alternatives for the next development.

Diploma thesis focuses to design anti roll-bar for Formula Student car Dragon II build in FME. This work follows the proposal anti roll-bar car Dragon I of Jan Krasula. Task of this work is analyses last design, introduce more effective method treatment, create own design with parameters which will be better then last design. An integral part design is prepare manufacture documentation which will be base for manufacture of this komponent

Diploma thesis is focused on design engine cooling system for formula vehicle type. The aim is introduce with cooling systems of Formula Student/SAE car and competition rules. Based on the famous engine determine the initial conditions for the cooling system. In addition to design all parts of the cooling system and check affordability.

The Diploma Thesis is focused on influence of manufacturing inaccuracy on suspension kinematics of Formula Student car Dragon 1. The real kinematics points were measured with 3D optical scanners and then the real vehicle kinematics was analysed. The gained data were compared with the ideal suspension points. For these purposes was used multibody system software MSC ADAMS.
