Hello,
For my University project I am trying to design uprights for a race car. Currently we are using TIG welded 4130, I am trying to push the Titanium carbon direction.
I have many questions!
The idea of the upright is to use a titanium core (manufacture from laser sintering) then skin it with carbon fiber. This should mean the core will have good compressive strenght and the skin will have a high tensile strenght.
One of the quierys I have is what the structure of the core should look like. The sintering machine can do a repeated pattern to build up a 3d object, What is the best pattern for the core? I was thinking a honey comb structure.
Please help,
Thank you.
