aerodynamics

For the Aerodynamics team, the primary focus is on maximizing vehicle performance through precise manipulation of airflow. This involves the creation of an optimized wing package that enhances grip, hereby increasing the cornering abilities, by generating increased downforce.

To achieve this, the wing package is methodically developed using a combination of iterative 3D modeling in CAD (Computer Aided Design), Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations for accurate airflow analysis, and validation of simulation results. The team also creates the design of robust fastening mechanisms capable of withstanding aerodynamic forces. These fasteners are crafted using CAD software and the Finite Element Method (FEM). The wing elements and fasteners are produced using advanced carbon fiber resin casts, and different production methods to create aluminum components.

Ultimately, your contribution will be essential in collectively crafting a system that significantly shapes the car's performance, making a substantial impact on its overall capabilities.

driver interface

Driver Interface is responsible for designing key components, such as the braking system, steering system, and the ergonomic features of the driver's seat. The team focuses on creating autonomous mechanical interactions and managing all mechanical systems around the driver. Using various production methods, the group collaboratively produces components to contribute to Revolve NTNUs overall success.

Driver Interface Group Leader

As the leader of the Driver Interface team, your role is pivotal in connecting the group with the broader Revolve NTNU organization. Your team oversees systems for driver interaction and ensures the integration of autonomous functionality. Your responsibilities include planning the production timeline and assembly processes. Despite not being directly involved in hands-on tasks, your flexibility is crucial for providing support where needed.

your responsibility
  • Design mechanical systems for both the driver and autonomous integration
  • Design systems with driver confidence as focus area
  • Interdisciplinary systems regarding production of both metal and composite

what you will gain from this position
  • Experience with machining (lathe, milling).
  • Experience in teamwork in and between different groups and disciplines
  • Experience in gathering and analyzing data.
  • Improved time management skills
  • Experience from several production methods (composite, machining etc)

control systems

The Control Systems group is all about race performance. Using advanced estimation- and control theory, we enhance the traction, handling and stability of the car and develop systems to assist the driver. We develop multiple driving modes with very different characteristics to make the car behave optimally, whether in a tight corner or a straight line. The group also does modeling and simulation, where we aim to build an accurate digital representation of our car. Through simulations, we are able to see the effects of different car parameters and setups, helping us make good design choices without physical testing.

The group works with

  • Torque Vectoring algorithm with built-in traction control, launch control and ABS.
  • Vehicle dynamics modeling and simulation
  • Vehicle analysis and research

Control Systems Group Leader

As the group leader for the Control Systems group, you will lead an agile software development team with a wide variety of possible focus areas and have a direct impact on not only the manual performance of the racecar but also its autonomous capabilities. The position offers the possibility of both technical work, mainly Control, Estimation, Modelling & Simulation or vehicle analysis, as well as project management.

your responsibility
  • Torque Vectoring algorithm with built-in traction control, launch control and ABS
  • Vehicle dynamics modelling and simulation
  • Vehicle performance analysis and research
  • Project management in an agile software development team
what you will gain from this position
  • Leadership experience
  • Project management skills
  • Experience working in an agile software development team
  • Possibility to gain technical experience within cybernetics related fields
  • Knowledge within vehicle dynamics

Torque Vectoring

This control systems engineer is responsible for developing our Torque Vectoring algorithm, which takes advantage of having one motor in each wheel. Through allocating different forces to each wheel 400 times every second, the algorithm enhances the vehicles cornering ability, by increasing tyre grip and responsiveness, while simultaneously offering traction control during acceleration and braking. This position also has the opportunity to dive into vehicle state estimation, where data from more than 100 sensors is used to accurately determine the state of the car at all times.

your responsibility
  • Torque Vectoring algorithm with built-in traction control, launch control and ABS
  • Vehicle performance analysis and research
  • Cooperation in an agile software development team
what you will gain from this position
  • Valuable experience with the control and regulation of a real, physical system
  • Experience in the field of state estimation and its effect on control systems
  • Experience evaluating and tuning the effects of Torque Vectoring on our race car
  • Knowledge within vehicle dynamics

data engineering

The Data Engineering group at Revolve NTNU is a vital part of the organization's operations, focusing on the exploitation of data collected from sensors or generated by simulations and aims to provide a competitive edge through enhanced data analysis. The Data Engineering Group is responsible for ensuring the accessibility and security of the organization’s data and facilitating its analysis by developing the necessary tools. This includes tasks such as overseeing our real-time telemetry system, our data storage solutions, and developing data analysis tools for members from all departments of the team.

Data Engineering Group Leader

As the group leader for the Data Engineering group, you will lead an agile software development team to provide the organization with the right data during competitions at Formula Student to make informed decisions and drive the success of the organization.

your responsibility
  • Lead an agile software development team to provide the organization with the right data at the right time to make informed decisions and drive the success of the organization.
  • Lead the development of new solutions while also overseeing maintenance and further development of existing systems.
  • User training and troubleshooting on both existing and new solutions/systems.

what you will gain from this position
  • Experience working in an agile software development team
  • Understanding and experience in multiple programming languages. (GO, C#, Python, Typescript Etc.)
  • Experience and great understanding of good practice regarding systems development and GitHub projects/repositories.
  • Improved time management skills
  • Leadership experience
  • Project management skills

autonomous systems

The Autonomous Systems group ensures the car can drive on its own, without a driver. An intelligent autonomous race car must be able to map and perceive its surroundings to navigate unknown territories using LiDAR, SLAM (Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping) and path planning. The group develops the logic that works as the car's eyes, ears and brain, making it able to understand its environment. In other words, the group converts sensor input to meaningful information about the vehicle and its environment. In addition to this, the group is responsible for the car’s autonomous control system. This is the system that enables the car to act on the sensor input, making it able to drive from A to B.

Autonomous Systems Group Leader

As the group leader for the Autonomous Systems group, you will lead an agile software development team iterating on a longstanding and advanced autonomous pipeline. This position has leeway for the candidate to produce more technical work or focus on project management, depending on how the group is structured.

your responsibility
  • Cone detection using LiDAR sensor
  • Optimisation of autonomous control systems
  • Sensor fusion
  • State estimation of the car
  • Development of planning algorithms

what you will gain from this position
  • Experience working in an agile software development team
  • Experience with CI/CD software development
  • Deep understanding of autonomous systems and vehicles
  • Improved time management skills
  • Leadership experience
  • Project management skills
