This week, the fourth-years showcased the car as part of the capstone project showcase in the Active Learning Lab. The event was an opportunity to display our work to fellow engineering students. This was particularly rewarding as provided an opportunity for the components which have been made to be attached to the car, which is an exciting stage in the projects progress. This also provided a good opportunity for the design posters to be created and printed, solidifying our design choices.
Later in the week, the alumni returned for a mock scrutineering and statics day, where they provided us with helpful feedback and suggestions on how to maximise our points at competition. Thank you to all alumni who returned for the day.
Among the components produced this week were several critical parts for ULM019, including waterjet cutting the headrest mount, master switch plate, and HVD brackets. The exposed edges of the rear bulkhead plate were filled to be rule abiding, which signals the end of the manufacturing of it.
As we head into the final week of term, we will continue to manufacture and prepare for our week 12 presentations on Wednesday.
