    Dear Formula SAE Participants and Organizers:

    Welcome to the Formula SAE competition at Michigan International Speedway in Brooklyn, Michigan.

    Formula SAE is steeped in tradition and competition. Now in its 36th year, Formula SAE provides the real-world challenges of systems engineering, design and problem solving, along with the teaming challenges of collaboration and cooperation. In short, Formula SAE, along with all of the SAE Collegiate Design Series competitions, provides the skills and experiences needed for a well-rounded engineering education.

    In addition to learning, Formula SAE also provides a unique form of competition. This week, collegiate engineering students from several nations will compete in a series of static and dynamic events designed to challenge their engineering, problem-solving and teamwork skills. The students will work hard and compete to win. Some will earn top honors, others will not. But all will leave here winners because they will be better engineering students.

    Good luck to all who are competing in this event. Also, I want to thank everyone for their hard work, support, volunteerism and participation. The experiences and learning you gain this weekend will last throughout your lives.

    Sincerely,

    Daniel M. HancockPresident, SAE International

  • 2concEPt of thE comPEtitionThe Formula SAE Series competitions challenge teams of university undergraduate and graduate students to conceive, design, fabricate and compete with small, formula style, competition vehicle. To give teams the maximum design flexibility and the freedom to express their creativity and imaginations there are very few restrictions on the overall vehicle design. Teams typically spend eight to twelve months designing, building, testing and preparing their vehicles before a competition. The competitions themselves give teams the chance to demonstrate and prove both their creation and their engineering skills in comparison to teams from other universities around the world. Registered for this event are 120 teams from colleges and universities. The end result is a great experience for young engineers in a meaningful engineering project as well as the opportunity of working in a dedicated team effort.

    For the purpose of this competition, the students are to assume that a manufacturing firm has engaged them to produce a prototype car for evaluation as a production item. The intended sales market is the nonprofessional weekend competitor. Therefore, the car must have very high performance in terms of its acceleration, braking, and handling qualities. The car must be low in cost, easy to maintain, and reliable. In addition, the cars marketability is enhanced by other factors such as aesthetics, comfort and use of common parts. The manufacturing firm is planning to produce four (4) cars per day for a limited production run. The challenge to the design team is to design and fabricate a prototype car that best meets these goals and intents. Each design will be compared and judged with other competing designs to determine the best overall car.

    Over the course of three days, the cars are judged in a series of static and dynamic events including: technical inspection, cost, presentation, and engineering design, solo performance trials, and high performance track endurance. These events are scored to determine how well the car performs. In each event, the manufacturing firm has specified minimum acceptable performance levels that are reflected in the scoring equations.

    Static EvEntS:design report: The students explain their constructive solutions to a jury of experts from the automotive and motorsport industries in report and discussion. The concept of the design is to evaluate the engineering effort that went into the design of the car and how the engineer-ing meets the intent of the market. The car that illustrates the best use of engineering to meet the design goals and the best understanding of the design by the team members will win the design event.

    cost report: The students are to assume that a serial production of 1000 cars a year will fol-low the prototype. The cost calculation is discussed with a jury based on a report. The objec-tive of the event is for the participants to learn and understand the manufacturing techniques and processes of some of the components that they have chosen to purchase rather than fabricate themselves.

    presentation: The objective is to evaluate the teams ability to develop and deliver a compre-hensive business case that will convince the executives of a fake manufacturing firm that the teams design best meets the demands of the amateur weekend competition market and that it can be profitably manufactured and marketed.

  • 3concEPt of thE comPEtition dynamic EvEntS:acceleration: The cars are evaluated on their accelerating abilities from a standing start over a distance of 75 meters.

    autocross: The objective is to evaluate the cars maneuver-ability and handling qualities on a tight course without the hindrance of competing cars. The course will combine the performance features of acceleration, braking and cornering into one event. The results of the Autocross scores determine the starting order for endurance.

    Skid-pad: The objective is to measure the cars cornering ability on a flat surface while making a constant-radius turn. The course will be a pair of concentric circles in shape of the number 8; the cars demonstrate how good lateral forces can be absorbed (up to 1.4g).

    Ford Endurance: Over a distance of 22 km the cars have to prove their durability under long-term conditions. Accelera-tion, speed, handling, dynamics, fuel efficiency, reliability the cars have to prove it all.

    Since the foundation in 2005 one of the most important reasons for the success of Rennteam Uni Stuttgart has been setting clear goals and milestones right from the beginning of every new cars development. Get the car done in time. Finish the endurance and finally score as many points as you can get. The long period of intensive car testing ensures a reliable and well-understood racecar. The concept implies a lightweight 10 wheeled car with a powerful four-cylinder Honda CBR engine. The combination of a CFRP monocoque with a tubular space frame rear was chosen to improve accessibility and maintenance of the entire powertrain. With the aid of CFD-based optimization our wings guarantee a well-balanced aerodynamic package with maximized efficiency regarding downforce to drag ratio. Looking forward to meeting the international competitors, the team is excited for the FSAE event 2014 on the Michigan International Speedway. Since last summer we have improved our cars weight and performance even further in order to have a great challenge!

    Wed like to thank all our sponsors and supporters who gave us the opportunity to build the F0711-8 and take part in this competition.

    Cornell Racing proudly presents its entry, ARG14, into the 2014 Formula SAE Michigan Competition. ARG14 maintains its power advantage while decreasing fuel consumption and improving driveability and ergonomics. To achieve these goals, a full carbon fiber monocoque was selected with a strong and reliable engine package centered around serviceability. At the heart of ARG14s engine package is a turbocharged Honda CBR600RR, with a custom dry sump lubrica-tion system, controlled by a MoTeC M400 ECU. Additionally, ARG14 features front and rear wings to increase high speed stability. Cornell Racing aims to win its 10th championship title at Formula SAE Michigan.

    AU-2014 utilizes a hybrid front monocoque and rear space frame chassis design to yield optimal vehicle dynamics, packaging, and overall reliability. The robust, efficient and powerful Yamaha R6 is used to power AU-2014. The decision to retain the R6 powerplant was made due to the reliability, driver-friendly torque, and efficiency that the team has extracted from the motor in AU-2014s prede-cessors. The R6 motor combined with an all-new monocque design and 10 in. wheels yields a superior power to weight ratio, and gives AU-2014 an advantage over the competition at the track and in the market-place.

    KA-RaceIng two cars, one passion! KA-RaceIng is a team of about 65 motivated students building two cars every season one powered by a combustion engine, the other one by an electric powertrain. The KIT13c is our combustion car from the season of 2013. It is based on the experience of having designed six combustion and three electric cars since the foundation of the team in 2006.

    As we are building two cars, we develop several parts which meet the requirements of both cars in order to improve testing time and manufacturing effort. Moreover we aim to combine the best of new ideas and tested concepts in both cars.

    The KIT13c is powered by a self-developed turbocharged 2-cylinder engine with direct injection that has been developed and improved since March 2011 in order to meet the requirements of a formula student engine. The chassis of the car is a light weight CFRP monocoque combined with a tubular rear space frame and an aerodynamic package.

    We would like to thank all our supporters for making it possible to participate in this great event and are looking forward to an exciting competition in Michigan.

    F2014 represents the ninth Formula SAE vehicle produced by USF Racing since beginning the FSAE series in 2005, and is the fourth evolution of our current design concept. The following goals were created by the team preceding the design process: improvement of component serviceability, initial development of an aerodynamics package, and a 10 lb weight reduction (without wings) from our previous model, F2013. We placed an emphasis on validating design simulation through real-world testing. Based off of the successes of previous models, F2014 runs a naturally aspirated Suzuki LT-R 450cc single cylinder engine, steel axles, and 10 inch wheels. Integrating last years chassis packaging with improvements in the suspension and engine systems, the introduction of an aerodynamics pack-age as well as building on a successful history in static events, we hope to have created a car which continues to perform aggressively across all events in the FSAE competition.

    Everyone at USF Racing would like to take the time to thank all of our sponsors for their continued support of our team. Every donation of time, service, knowledge, and funding brings us one step closer to the checkered flag.

    In October 2012 a team of 65 young and motivated students started to develop the 10th Formula Student Combustion car of the TUfast Racing Team. After a lot of hard work we were proud to roll out the nb013 out of our workshop in June 2013. The challenge for this year was to reduce weight even more, aiming for less than 190kg with an aero package. Therefore we implemented some innova-tive designs e.g. for the rims and the driveshafts for further weight reduction. The full aero package is also a first in TUfast history. So now we are excited to com-pete with all the other teams and see if we did a good job. And after a hard day full of work, we would be happy to chat with some of you guys about our favorite topic and have a good time. Just come over and have a beer with us.

    Having developed a fully functional prototype in 2013, this year the team has focused on improving the reliability of the vehicle, by optimizing the manufacturing time to allow more track tests. Also, the team has achieved a 12% weight reduc-tion, and the mass distribution has changed for better performance: the CG is at a lower height, and rearwards, and the system components are more centered in the vehicle. We stick to our tested YZ450F engine, wich we used the last year for the first time. Using the experience and knowledge acquired with the 2013 proto-type, the engine setup for this year is more efficient with a new intake system and engine mapping optimizations. Also, the electronics have been designed for easy debugging and setting of the system.

    We are proud to present one of the best prototypes since the team creation in 2005. The Team is very grateful with all our sponsors, that make possible the realization of this project.

    The 2014 Navy Formula SAE team (NR-14) is a refinement of Navys 2013 car, focusing on a back-to-basics mind-set. NR-14s goal was to incorporate the lessons learned from past-years teams to advance the general design of the 2013 car. We worked to improve manufacturability and lessen complexity by developing a simple, easily repaired, and easily diagnosed vehicle. Previous years of Navy Racing have utilized advanced methods of shifting, such as pneumatic cylinders and electronic solenoids; however, NR-14 chose to employ a basic bar linkage from the drivers hand, back to the transmission, keeping shifting sim-ple. In addition, NR-14 worked to improve the lines of communication between the team and USNAs machine shop to discuss the creation of parts. This helped ensure there would not be any challenges from transferring CAD designs through to manufacturing. In the case of complex components, including carbon-fiber A-arms and additional systems components, NR-14 made sure to develop each component prior to introducing them to the car. All parts were initially lab-tested and systems components were isolated from the functionality of the car.

    The 2014 USAFA Formula SAE team has constructed S1.4, the fourth version of the S-series car. The philosophy set by the 2011 team to constantly improve on the same fundamental concept of small and lightweight has lead to what is the best car in USAFA history. With a reliable KTM 525 engine, and the mindset of constant improvement, the USAF is represented well by 11 highly motivated cadets.

    This years car is approximately forty pounds lighter than last years. In the original plan set out by the 2010 team, this years main goal was to improve the reliability of S1.3 while saving additional weight.

    Major modifications to S1.3 include a new differential, improved suspension parts, new brake parts, a smaller tire size, lighter frame, form fitted foam seat, and new intake/exhaust system. With these new parts and a fresh batch of firsties (seniors at a military academy), the 2014 USAFA Formula team is excited to compete!

    Our focus for 2014 is to improve upon our designs from previous years by analyz-ing the failures and successes of pastvehicles. We designed a more reliable and drivable vehicle while adding additional data logging and processingcapabilities, to improve our tuning ability and allow our vehicle to serve as a test-bed for future years. We alsodesigned the vehicle with the goal of promoting design for manu-facture and assembly, to reduce time spent on thesetasks, and give us more time to tune and train in the car. The team additionally continued to work towards its goal ofenabling amateur drivers to take full advantage of the cars potential. Through the year, the team used computersimulations, subsystem testing, and full-scale data logging to study and improve vehicle performance.

    The 2014 car is the latest evolution of a platform that started in 2011. Our main focus this year was to create a better car by first becoming a better team. We committed to an aggressive timeline and ended up finishing the chassis in record time, having more competition ready engines than weve ever had, the most dyno time in years, and more testing than ever before.

    We again chose a space frame of 4130 with bonded carbon fiber structural panels and an inline 4-cyl from a Yamaha R6. The suspension geometry stayed the same but the system shed significant unsprung weight. The team now fully utilizes brand new MoTeC engine control and telemetry hardware/software which aided suspension and powertrain tuning. The intake, differential support, tires, and cooling all improved significantly for this years car.

    We want to give a big thanks to all of our sponsors, friends at the University, alumni, and supporters for helping us meet our goals and achieve our potential!

    Making its way to the 2014 Formula SAE Michigan Competition is our very own NUS FSAE Race Car, NUS-R14. The design of this car took reference from the previous car, NUS-R13, with the major change being the new engine.

    R14 uses an inline four cylinders CBR600RR engine, changing from the V-twin two cylinders Aprilia SXV550 used in R13. The CBR600RR was chosen for its reliability, serviceability and responsive power delivery. A dry sump with thin flat oil pan was designed for the lubrication system in order to lower the position of the engine in the chassis. This is done to achieve a race car with lower Centre of Gravity.

    We would like to thank the university and all the sponsors as this car will not be possible without their support.

    With that, we hope R14 would be a strong contender in the FSAE Michigan Com-petition where we would showcase our years worth of hard work.

    The University of Toronto presents UT14 for the 2014 Formula SAE Michigan competition.

    The UT14 entry marks UofTs 16th year at competition. The vehicle follows a philosophy of design for manufacture, offering an optimal balance between performance and cost. This mentality has provided distinctly new design methods for the 2014 vehicle. A wooden jig, pocketed a-arms, and aluminum cast uprights have served to drastically decrease our manufacturing time without compromise for performance. This is our second installment of the 10 wheel vehicle powered by the Honda TRX450 single cylinder engine. The chassis has been lengthened by 2 inches and the driver has been angled back to increase driver comfort. The efficient packaging of all components over a 23kg chassis allows us to achieve Torontos highest stiffness to weight ratio.

    By adhering to our design philosophy the team was able to complete significant track testing and gain substantial driving experience. The end result is a light-weight, drivable and simple vehicle.

    The Panther Racing Team is divided into six main groups: Chassis & Suspension, Powertrain, Drivetrain, Electronics & Data Acquisition, Ergonomics, and Aero-dynamics. This structure allows each design group to operate in parallel while maintaining inter-group communication to ensure that each system complements the others and strives for a common set of design goals. With the growing use of aerodynamic devices on top-twenty finishers, it was decided to pursue perfor-mance gains through aerodynamics. In addition, an evaluation of the competition showed that a sub-200 kg car weight was standard among top-placing steel tube frame 4-cylinder cars without wings. Thus, a target weight was chosen to be 200 kg (441 lbm) without the aerodynamic package, a feasible 6% weight reduction from previous Panther Racing vehicles. Our 2014 prototype has a steel tube space frame chassis with a 4-cylinder engine and a full aerodynamics pack-age. This combination was selected due to the low cost and ease of manufacture of the chassis, the high power output of a 4-cylinder powertrain, and the conclu-sive laptime reductions seen by increasing downforce in laptime simulation.

    Villanova Universitys 2014 entry into the Formula SAE Competition (hereafter re-ferred to as VU06) represents the teams sixth year in competition. Last years car, VU05, was the first point in our history where we could refine and update systems on the car, rather than fully redesign them. A major goal for VU06 was to finish early, with an emphasis on reliability and driver comfort, while building on the lightness and performance of VU05. Some highlights include a frame that is 10% lighter and 15% torsionally stiffer, increased reliability across the vehicle without significant weight gain, a redesigned cooling system, a new paddle-actuated CO2 shift system and computer, and a new data acquisition system.

    Spartan Racing is proud to introduce SR-6, our sixth Formula SAE vehicle and the boldest yet. Weve returned to compete this year with more motivation, more speed, and a lot more carbon (with slightly less yellow). SR-6 incorporates the strong points of the lightening-fast SR-5, including electropneumatic paddle shift-ers, a powerful and reliable Honda F4i engine, and a dry sump system. To improve reliability, handling, and speed, Weve added a Drexler differential, redesigned the chassis to significantly boost stiffness and enclose suspension components for drag reduction, and designed a three-element wing package for a high lift/drag ratio. SR-6 sets a new bar for us at Spartan Racing, and we are excited to share it with all of our friends here at FSAE Michigan 2014.

    The focus of the Formula Buckeyes 2014 design was weight reduction and lowered CG height. To achieve this, the team has developed 10, 3 piece carbon fiber wheels to replace the current 13 wheels. This combined with the switch to a Drexler differential and a redesigned two piece monocoque chassis a weight reduction of over 60 lbs has been achieved. In addition our new dry sump oil system has allowed the engine to be lowered over 2 inches, helping to lower the overall CG height 1.1 inches. The Formula Buckeyes would like to thank all of our sponsors for their continued support and wish all other teams good luck in competition this year!

    The 2014 Oklahoma State University car, designated VALKYRIE, was designed to exemplify the successes of previous generations while building upon the founda-tions of previous lessons learned. The car was created, not only with the technical rules in mind, but with the intent of creating a business friendly car that would be easy to manufacture and remain affordable to the everyday autocrosser.

    At the heart of this years car lies a Yamaha YFZ450R single-cylinder ATV engine. The power supplied by this engine will propel the car to a maximum vehicle speed of 116 kph. The engine would be nothing without a frame to propel. This years frame is a tubular space frame made out of 4130 steel of the round and square varieties. VALKYRIE was designed to float like a butterfly on a double unequal length A-Arm suspension attached to both, the front and the rear. VALKYRIE also relies upon four 18x6-10 R25B Hoosier tires to lay the power down to the asphalt as she rounds corners and flies down straightaways.

    Manufacturer-purchased parts aside, all other aspects of VALKYRIE were hand-crafted and machined with the utmost attention to detail by the members of the Okstate Racing Team.

    Michigan Technological Universitys Formula SAE program began in 1994. Today, the team consists of 45 motivated members majoring in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and mechanical engineering technology. The three main goals that drove the design of this years vehicle were performance, driveability and maintainability. The F-151, the 2014 competition vehicle, incorporates fea-tures that address each of these goals. The single cylinder KTM engine provides maximum performance with a custom student designed fuel injection system and intake. The newly designed electro-pneumatic shifting system increases drivability by reducing shifting time. The two piece 1020 space frame chassis provides superior maintainability by allowing improved access to vehicle systems. This vehicle is a third iteration vehicle that first competed in 2010.

    The team continues to build on the strong foundation that was created some 10 years ago. We would like to thank Michigan Technological University and our loyal sponsors for their continued support. We look forward to representing them at competition.
