Assembly line covering the firewalls and floor panels from CR25 onward.
Groups the main hoop firewall, seat firewall, engine firewall and floor panels into one costed assembly. Design Philosophies and Processes: Inherited from the Frame subsystem design process: 1. Kinematics supplies the pickup points and an LLTD range; the intersection of the frame-stiffness curve with that range sets the torsional stiffness target (CR26E: 1651 lb-ft/deg design target, from an LLTD target of 41.6% within a 39.5-42.5% range). 2. Model in SolidWorks 1D beam element FEA: couple moment across the front axle, rear upright points fixed, actuation geometry as trusses, representative engine tubes, displacement measured at the front upper pickup points. 0.5 in mesh spacing after a convergence study. 3. Physically test on the torsional stiffness jig: solid dampers installed, rear spindles fixed, front spindles on a pivot beam, weights hung at known distance. Historical FEA error 2.94% (CR22), 10.23% (CR25), 19.60% (CR26E). 4. Analyse each suspension tab for bearing stress and bending at its critical load case. 5. Weld in CNC-milled 6061 jigs with dowel pins; heat treat suspension nodes; FARO the finished frame.
