Brackets in the CR26E rear wing mounting.
A machined or waterjet part transferring load from one component into another, in double shear where the packaging allows it.
No part-specific design process is documented. The Rear Wing subsystem design process applies: 1. 2D ANSYS sweeps to optimise element positions and angles of attack for each candidate element count. 2. Verify positions in 3D and increase stack angle of attack where 2D over-predicted. 3. Run integrated half-car runs with the current undertray iteration so element interaction is captured rather than assumed. 4. Full-car yaw runs to check performance when the front stack is reduced. 5. On-track validation with tufting on both surfaces and Flo-Vis oil during constant speed and skid pad.
Milled. Mounting parts moved from waterjet to milled because the waterjet cut surface leaves stress raisers that can propagate.
