Rebus posted:The tunnel runs to the absolute permitted limit (both by run count and wind on time). Out of interest: how is this actually controlled? Does the FIA have personal embedded in each factory that basically “works there” 24/7 and checks wind tunnel usage, origin of CAD-design (so no outside design can be brought in to prevent a pink Mercedes) etc.?

Rebus posted:You only need a handful of photos really to get the idea of a general shape, ideally from a few angles. Aeros will be able to draw some conclusion on what the intention of the surface is, and can then modify their own CAD to put the idea through CFD. If they're a decent CAD monkey (or have assistance from a surfacer) they'll be able to get a couple of CFD iterations turned around on the same day as seeing the photo. This (and the rest of your insights) are awesome, thank you so much  pretty amazing to hear how quickly it can be turned around!Nick Soapdish posted:https://twitter.com/LewisHamilton/status/1490022589296951296?s=20&t=PkKifFC57OLLglWs86sSpg <Stugotz voice>Lewis Hamilton…is BACK

It's reported back to the FIA at the end of each ATR period (approx every 8 weeks). You report the number of runs, how much wind time, wind accel/decel rates, a photo of the state of the tunnel at the start of every run, etc, including anything non F1 related - literally anything you run through the tunnel has to be recorded. They then audit and pick out anything that might be borderline and do a few spot checks. Any rule breakages have severe consequences (either a fine or reduction in limits for the next period) so as you can imagine teams are super cautious around ensuring everything is correct, especially toward the end of a period where you are at risk of doing one run too many for example.

Sorry that's not a new way to masturbate at all, the "half plank double squeezy" is very basic fundamentals. Max needs to step up his game if he wants to be a goat. He should take advice from his mentor, a man who has masturbated in ways that many had claimed to be impossible

Thanks a lot, that’s pretty interesting. So the FIA more or less relies on the teams reporting correctly. I would have thought it’s way stricter, especially with teams who don’t own their own wind tunnel and/or external wind tunnels that are readily available (like Toyota in Cologne etc.). Also pretty interesting how little data/photos the teams need to reproduce other team’s solutions. I always assumed the pit lane houses like twenty concealed laser scanners per team aimed the the diffusor of the car passing by

Reproducing individual pieces of geometry to understand what effect it has, yes that's less complicated. I think laser scanning and photogrammetry are banned?

Oh would the tunnel manage reporting like you said above?

I would have thought it’s way stricter, especially with teams who don’t own their own wind tunnel and/or external wind tunnels that are readily available (like Toyota in Cologne etc.). This kind and level of reporting are pretty standard in other highly regulated industries like banking, or certain types of manufacturing (anywhere that has an ISO certification) etc. In my experience you have to take that stuff super seriously because the consequences for not doing so are very strict. Since we're on the subject of manufacturing; Rebus, given the speed with which teams can turn around parts do you see a use case for the high end of 3D printing (like SLS metal printers, and CF printers)? Does additive manufacturing give you any time savings on prototyping parts vs conventional machining? Or does it give you more freedom in your designs due to the fact that you can 3D print geometries that simply aren't possible with conventional manufacturing techniques? I've been loving all of your process and manufacturing talk. Thanks for opening up about it.

tuo posted:Ferrari though…. 2020 is proof they paid for their completely non-specific and never fully admitted to in public crimes. Going from race winners and dark horse championship push to 2020 was punishment enough. Plus again the limitations now are more fully published and there seems to be greater transparency there, so I’d expect breaches to be treated differently than what Ferrari did and what the punishment was then.

Rebus posted:All good buddy. For me the manufacture process is a bit of a black box in that CAD designs leave my department then appear a few days later as built parts, so we've probably hit the limit of what I am comfortable talking about without accidentally giving away too much. Just talking about this stuff in a general sense is pretty fascinating tbh. Even what you've already said about your 3D printing applications is making me wonder if there would be measurable performance advantages to SLS printing the pedal box or even the pedals themselves given that sintered metal is about 75% the density of an equivalent machined part, and therefore lighter. For non-structural components I imagine the weight savings (and the cost savings) would add up fairly quickly. But I'm not an engineer or materials scientist so I don't know how realistic any of that is. I would love to ask you even some basic aero questions as I know that is more your wheelhouse, but it's probably a much more touchy subject for you and I don't want to put you in that position. Regardless, thank you for the insight. Shitposting is fun and all but nerding out on little details about the cars and the processes of working in an actual team is so much better.

When I did the Ducati factory tour we got to see the racing department, which was basically we walked by a door and the guide girl went "this is where they make the racing bikes" and then continued through the factory. I imagine that's probably what Horner is going to experience
