About The Winning Solar Car: A Design Guide For Solar
Product Description This book provides an introduction to all aspects of designing, manufacturing, and racing solar cars. Understanding the 'big picture' will help members of solar race car teams make design and manufacturing trade-offs to stay on schedule and allow time to test and practice racing the car. Based on the author's experiences designing and building five solar cars over the last ten years, this book focuses on the important aspects of designing a competitive solar car, including developing a racing strategy, efficient solar car driving, project management, and designing the specific subsystems of the car. About the Author Dr. Douglas R. Carroll is a professor in the Basic Engineering Department at the University of Missouri-Rolla, and coach and advisor for the university's solar car team. The team finished first in the 1999 Sunrayce, second in the 2000 Formula Sun Grand Prix, second in the 2001 American Solar Car Challenge, first in the 2002 Formula Sun Grand Prix, and first in the 2003 American Solar Challenge.
