I started meeting with them bi-weekly and giving them feedback about necessary changes.\u201d<br><br>For their third-generation car, the team had several opportunities to update or improve critical parts, including the driven sprocket and motor shaft, uprights, steering column, and battery structural bars.

When we got the result from Fictiv, we were amazed at how perfectly it fit.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Thinking Critically About Tolerances<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Tolerances were a considerable challenge for the students. On the one hand, the driving sprocket and motor shaft needed to fit perfectly. On the other hand, the students could eliminate costs by dialing back the complexity and tolerances where they weren\u2019t necessary.&nbsp;<br><br>Toshko Andreev, the team\u2019s president, explains, \u201cI think the main thing that changed the cost and the complexity was tolerancing. So, we spent a lot of time making these drawings and tolerating everything once we sent them out. And then on the call with Samson, he showed us how to think critically about which tolerances mattered. That really changed how we were manufacturing, which is great.\u201d<br><br>Olanrewaju explains it this way: \u201cLet\u2019s assume you&#8217;re manufacturing a part with a tolerance of \u00b10.01, intended to mate with another part that has a tolerance of \u00b10.015. In theory, this should result in an acceptable fit. However, if the assembly involves rotational movement\u2014like components in an automotive system\u2014the looser tolerance could lead to unintended play or movement during rotation. To address this, we performed a <a href=\"\/articles\/tolerance-stack-ups-501-going-beyond-mechanical-fit-and-into-predictive-design\">tolerance stack-up analysis<\/a> across the entire assembly, evaluating how individual tolerances accumulate and interact, part by part and between mating components, to ensure overall functionality and precision.&#8221;<br><br>This analysis was a collaborative effort with FEB to ensure that Fictiv could accommodate their needs. It involved a continuous back-and-forth process to balance design intents, reduce costs, and fine-tune materials and production methods. \u201cAll our calls and discussions were focused on ensuring the vehicle met performance expectations, ran efficiently, and gave them a competitive edge in their race,\u201d says Olanrewaju. Reducing the weight of the parts and moving production overseas cut costs by 20%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cThis analysis was a collaborative effort with FEB to ensure that Fictiv could accommodate their needs.

And then there was a rotating assembly where it rotates while assembled.\u201d<br><br>From Olanrewaju\u2019s perspective, achieving smooth, vibration-free rotations was one of the most significant challenges faced by the student team. It required extensive testing and numerous calls, with ongoing adjustments to the design and manufacturing process. Through a series of iterations, the team fine-tuned the system until the car&#8217;s rotational components operated correctly without causing excessive shaking or instability.&nbsp;<br><br>He goes on, \u201cThe perseverance and collaboration ultimately paid off when they resolved the issue, ensuring smooth performance.&#8221;<br><br>Ultimately, the students got the car running and prepped for the competition, packing everything up and making the 40-plus hour journey across the country to Michigan International Speedway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading fct-anchor-ebook\" id=\"competition\">Competition: A Week of Firsts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The week of competition was the culmination of years of hard work (2024 represents the third-generation car built by FEB). For the <a href=\"https:\/\/ev.studentorg.berkeley.edu\/team\">Berkeley team<\/a>, it was a week of firsts. \u201cWe got our car running for the first time just before the competition,\u201d explains Johnson. \u201cAnd we only had 30 minutes of testing time before we had to pack it up and send it to Michigan (the site of the Formula SAE Electric competition).\u201d Later, the team began a series of required inspections and tests at the speedway to participate in the dynamic driving events. (Only half of the teams will successfully complete this portion of the competition).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"480\" height=\"400\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Race-car-team-working-jpg.webp\" alt=\"Formula Electric students run tests the day of the competition.\" class=\"wp-image-16709 lazyload\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"483\" height=\"400\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Race-car-building-jpg.webp\" alt=\"Formula Electric students run tests the day of the competition.\" class=\"wp-image-16711 lazyload\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"480\" height=\"400\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Race-car-assembly-jpg.webp\" alt=\"Formula Electric students run tests the day of the competition.\" class=\"wp-image-16713 lazyload\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Formula Electric students run tests the day of the competition.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"483\" height=\"400\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.fictiv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Race-car-team-working-3-jpg.webp\" alt=\"Formula Electric students run tests the day of the competition.\" class=\"wp-image-16714 lazyload\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>They later rallied to overcome a significant software challenge that had blocked further advancement until the morning of the final day. With hours remaining in the competition, the team racked up a series of first-ever passes, including the tilt test, where the car is rotated to a 60-degree angle to ensure it won\u2019t flip over, and a rain test to ensure electrical safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe class=\"lazyload\" loading=\"lazy\" data-src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/1001206804?autoplay=1&#038;loop=1&#038;muted=1&#038;autopause=0\" width=\"100%\" height=\"560\" frameborder=\u201c0\u201d  allow=fullscreen allow=autoplay><\/iframe>\n<figcaption style=\"font-size: 12px;\n    display: block;\n    margin-top: .25rem;\n    margin-bottom: .25rem;\">The Formula Electric at Berkeley racecar completes the tilt test for the first time.<\/figcaption>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 20px\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, the team saw their car run under its own power at competition for the first time at the brake test, where the car accelerates to 30 mph before braking. Unfortunately, brake issues halted further advancement in the competition, but it didn\u2019t dampen the spirits of the students or the Fictiv advisors.
