...

  • General tensile and compressive stresses

  • Plus the external weight of the drive

  • Overloading a specific adhered chassis tube may cause malformation and strain to the tube and adhesive, respectiy

    due to general usage

    • Specific overloaded substrates may cause excess strain and/or malformation

  • General weight of hanging parts (eg. bottom panel)

Potential Forces or Stresses

...

  • Neither yet

    • The chassis hasn’t been adhered to the bottom panel as of right now (3:35 PM EST on Friday, July 9th)anything yet, so no quality concerns

    • Still need to study and determine the experience of the bottom panel during car usage

Test(s)

  1. Adhesive Yield Strength

    1. Determine how much the adhesive can withstand

    2. Tensile and shear stress must be tested

    3. Yield is different for application, so maybe just figure out when it crosses a certain elongation?

    4. Then find amount of force required

  2. General Weight

    1. Determine safety factor and actual elongation

    2. Needed: surface area, bottom panel mass

  3. Point Pressures

    1. Determine ratio strain between overloaded and general sections

  4. Quality

    1. Determine air bubbles?

    2. Determine shrinkage?
