Bro from TUKS! I'm studying Computer Engineering at the University of Pretoria (TUKS). I'm a huge fan of Rimac, and to see a South African who studied at my university working there is just inspiring!

I want to build a car and i have a sketch in mind and on paper. So how should i go next and where exactly does vehicle dynamics go. Is it at the start or is it after you have decided on all other components.

Thanks for the answers! We'll have to catch up again if you come visit SA (we can do another go-karting challenge at Menlyn/Zwartkops :D). Would be interesting to get Filip's take on what he is up to over there. I believe he is doing more on the multibody dynamics (MBD or MBS as the application said) work. Klink asof jy besig is om afrikaans te verleer daar, lol. As jy oefening nodig het kan jy met Filip praat. Hy kan verbased baie goed afrikaans praat, ek het so geleer in Japan saam hom.

You are an inspiration to many. Keep up the great work. Maybe one day you may work on a South African branded vehicle. Preferably a 4x4 SUV.

How do you combine vehicle and Thermal dynamics, what software do you use
@NebosvodGonzalez4 жыл бұрын
Thats a Really good Question. One thing for Sure. The thermal dynamics a lot of it greatly depends on the aerodynamics and the way and how the air removes the heat. CFD computational fluid dynamics. In this case mostly Aerodynamics aspect. for Sure but there also Material Thermal Dynamics. Certain materials flex or contract or do a variety of other things under extreme temperature variations I'm sure that is also considered in the simulations. That is definitely a very good question. I'm not sure what software they use.
@zoppp6214 жыл бұрын
Chances are its a program made by ANSYS. They have a lot of really good simulation software.
@anantmehrotra48684 жыл бұрын
That's very rightly said, basics and principles are more important --- tools could be learned. I especially loved working on MSC ADAMS for multi-body dynamics, playing with parameters for tires, COG, etc to redefine the vehicle dynamics.

All it takes is one EMP hit or a small accident, water, corrosion... New cars are becoming extremely complex laptops on wheels. How do you ensure they last? If I was a 1% ER Rimac buyer I'd get a Porsche Carrera GT on the side with a manual V10. Like the Rimac, it will only appreciate in value but it also has the best exhaust note of any production car.

I wish other companies did this, I'm about to enter my senior year for my ME degree and while I have sort of focused on a field (mechanical side of robotics) everything feel so uncertain as I haven't met a great mentor nor does my family have any related background. I know it's engineering is learning on the job but its quite unnerving to feel like you barely have any hirable skills. It's really nice and comforing to see more personal industry insight and not just PR prepared things.

@Superduperloopo4 жыл бұрын
Why would Rimac want that? The range would be something like 500m
@NebosvodGonzalez4 жыл бұрын
@@Superduperloopo because the Lamborghini's super capacitor has the highest energy storage density of any known cell on Earth ×3 more. It also fully charges and discharges in 3 seconds. Charge density to weight is over nine times that of a lithium-ion battery. Lithium-ion is what is used in a Rimac Car. Batteries used in Rimac are obsolete compared to Lamborghini super capacitors. Though I don't think Lamborghini is intending to sell them to their competitors. Lol
