Team profile
ASU Racing Team (ASURT) is a group of Multidisciplinary Engineering Students from Egypt. ASURT’14 consists of 46 members ; 39 technical members from Automotive Engineering, Mechanical Power Engineering, Manufacturing and Production Engineering and Mechatronics departments Ain Shams University.
Not only 4th Year students but also 1st and 2nd Year students all in Mechanical/Manufacturing Engineering departments.
The team is divided into 6 sub-teams along with the non-technical team with 6 members.
ASURT has participated in Formula Student for the first time class 2 in 2012 with 12 students and first time class 1 in 2013 with 25 students. Now we are 46 , aiming to be a sustainable team with good handing over skills to ensure development while making a whole new car each year.
ASURT’14 is a totally new car with more advanced engineering concepts.
This year we are targeting a 25% weight reduction from last years car using Carbon Fibre in more parts and replacing steel by aluminium.
An aerodynamic kit was implemented. More student designed parts were made; ex:rims. More advanced simulation methods were used in simulating the flow in Intake and Exhaust. We are also developing our own student designed Engine control unit.
We are aiming to revive industry and technology in Egypt; specifically Automotive industries and technologies, through learning, applying and teaching knowledge.
