Automotive 10 | Formula Student Austria | Spielberg 2018
FOrMuLA StuDent Scope and Martin History MAtZer „The Formula SAE ® Series competitions challenge teams of university undergraduate and graduate students to conceive, design, fabricate, develop and compete with small, formula style, vehicles.“ Formula SAe rule A1.1: Competition Objective the roots of formula student lie in 1970s texas, as a variant to the already existing Mini Baja (competition for lawnmower-powered offroad vehicles). the idea resonated well and after a few establishing years, Formula SAe was introduced as a design competition with a very open ruleset and also much more "race" appeal since the cars were allowed to have engines with siginficant power comapred to the spec‘d single cylinders in Baja. the event quickly picked up momentum, and in 1998 it made the jump over the big pond when Formula Student uK was the first non-uS competition to be held. Soon other followed and today there are eight official competitions all over the World: • Formula SAe Michigan • Formula SAe Lincoln • Formula SAe Australasia • Formula Student Austria • Formula SAe Brazil • Formula Student germany • Formula SAe Italy • Formula Student (uK) Additionally, there a whole lot of unofficial events held around the globe, e.g. in India, the netherlands, Hungary,the Czech republic and many more. So what is it all about? Formula Student is an engineering Design competition that should teach engineering students some real-world skills relevant to the automotive and other industries. to sucessfully compete, a team has to delve into research, design, manufacturing, testing, developing, marketing, management and finances - this favors or even requires the formation of multi-disciplinary teams. this and the fact that Formula Student is as much a project management exercise as it is an engineering challenge, it teaches the competitors a valuable and industry-appreciated combination of soft- and hard skills. the vehicle itself is governed by a set of internationally agreed upon rules. the rules have grown pretty complex over the years (the rule book is now larger than the one for F1), so here are the defining characteristics: Vehicle: • Open-Wheel, Open-Cockpit, Formula-style body • four wheels • aerodynamic devices are limited in size C - powertrain: • 20mm Air restrictor (19mm for e85) • turbo/supercharging is allowed e-powertrain: • any number of motors and driven wheels • 80kw peak system power As originally intended, Fromula Student has become a major source of highly qualified graduates in the engineering world, focused but not limited to the automotive sector. even in the highest classes of professional motorsports, FS team jackets and memorabilia can be seen everywhere. the unique compination of engineering and project management skills required to complete and run an FS car makes it a great preparation for real-world projects. this is recognized by many businesses, making it an ideal stepping stone from academics into an interesting rewarding job.
