VIBRATIONS MEASUREMENTS OF FORMULA ONE CAR ELECTRONIC DEVICES
Abstract
F1 car is a very critical system in terms of temperature, shock and vibrations. For this reason, usually, automotive standards are no adequate for motor-sport electronic applications. Further peculiarity of F1 automobiles is the periodic change of vehicle dynamic setting. Vibration monitoring techniques are being used by F1 teams mainly to spot mechanical imbalances and, consequently, to define a car’s set up. In the competitive race context, also it is mandatory to improve the electronic components reliability, to optimize their maintenance time, to control the quality of their manufacturing and to take into account their noise and vibration pollution. This paper presents an experimental vibration measurement system implemented on Ferrari racing car model 248F1.
