Custom FSAE Brake Software
*** Update 1/3/13 – I realized that since I complied the GUI in 64-bit MATLAB it would only run on other 64-bit computers, I have since added a 32-bit version of the PKG file to my SkyDrive folder. I also got rid of the running code at the bottom, it was redundant and was not displaying…

Arduino DAQ (IR Temp) – FSAE
Objective This tutorial will be the first in a series (hopefully) that gets a low cost DAQ solution for Formula SAE teams on a budget. Tools First and foremost, if you are relatively new to electronics and/or the Arduino I strongly suggest you either own or have access to the following: Soldering Iron (don’t buy…

FSAE Braking System: Preliminary Kinetics and Dynamic Analysis
Preface I wanted to give a brief background on how to approach the braking system for an FSAE car. A thorough understanding of the physics in the brake system is essentially to component selection, the first thing the brake lead should consider in his/her design. This was the method that my colleague, Daniel Stamper, and…

SDSU FSAE Acceleration Data
The first batch of data is in, still trying to figure out how to best handle it. I imported the data via MATLAB and applied a low pass filter to it to get rid of all the vibration and electrical noise.
