Introduction

This is the first time that a material testing project has been introduced to Midnight Sun. Previous vehicle designs of Midnight Sun did not include structural components made of composites and therefore did not require further testing beyond just FEA simulations. E.g. the chassis was made fully from 4130 chromoly steel chassis tubes therefore it was sufficient to validate the design using FEA and a safety factor of 2 in respect to the yield strength.
