Team Profile
Cerber Motorsport is team from Bialystok University of Technology. In our team we have students from Mechanics and Construction of Machinery, Automatic Control and Robotics, Architecture and Town Planning and Environmental Protection.
Team is divided into sub-teams responsible for each system of the car – Suspension and Steering, Drivetrain, Engine, Aerodynamics, Bodywork, Braking system, Electrical system, and Electronics. There is also team responsible for Business Plan Presentation and Sustainability.
Our car is second Formula Student vehicle designed and built and Bialystok University of Technology. It is developed to be much lighter than our previous car. We are using single-cylinder engine which is rebuilt basing on 1-D simulations – we have increased compression ratio and used different camshaft. Many elements of car are made using Rapid Prototyping technologies (3D Scanners to acquire geometry shapes and 3D printers to produce various elements). This year we are using aerodynamic package to increase vehicle’s cornering performance.
Many elements of our car are made of welded and heat-treated aluminium. Every stressed part was FEM simulated. Suspension was developed with use of tyre data and simulational software.
All of this was possible by te help of our sponsors and University.
Additional information
This is our second car. With first car we have participated at Formula Student Germany 2013 and Formula Student Hungary 2013. At FSG we have won Sportsmanship Award and placed second at Media Award contest. After first season we are highest ranked team from Poland.
