Brake System Design and Optimization: How to Use This Course
How to Use This Course
02.09
00:00 | - This course is presented via individual video modules that focus on the various components that make up the braking system and how they function together. |
00:09 | Including all the intricacies that you need to understand in order to build a thorough knowledge of motorsport braking systems. |
00:17 | Even if you already have some experience with brakes, it's still very important that you watch the entire course from start to finish as there's a lot of information covered and at the very least, it'll be a good refresher and ensure that we're all on the same page as the discussions start getting more technical further into the course. |
00:35 | Watching the course in its entirety also means you don't overlook any important concepts and will prove invaluable when it comes to modifying or designing your own system. |
00:45 | We provide examples from real racecars and encourage you to experiment with some theoretical calculations for vehicles you might have access to, in order to gain a solid understanding of braking systems in different applications before making any physical changes. |
01:02 | Although the calculations and maths have been kept relatively simple, we also provide some tools to speed up and guide you through the design process. |
01:11 | Don't worry, you don't need to go hunting these down now, I'll be pointing them out and providing a download link when they're relevant. |
01:19 | Once you've watched the complete course, it's very easy to find and rewatch any modules that you feel you might need to get a better understanding of as many times as you like. |
01:28 | This is particularly useful if you want to focus on a specific component or concept that you might currently be working on in your project. |
01:38 | While we've tried to cover every concept we feel is important, you may still have other questions that come up or areas that you'd like to dive deeper into. |
01:46 | With this in mind, this course also includes a membership to our online community and it's here that you'll find our support forum. |
01:53 | This is the perfect place to ask any technical questions you may have. |
01:57 | If you have queries specific to a particular lesson, you'll also find a form below each module that lets you quickly create a related discussion in our forum. |
