Development journal
Follow the development of Project DBR9.
This blog will record the design and engineering work behind Project DBR9. Posts will follow the programme through its development stages and explain the reasons for each design decision.
Vehicle concept and aerodynamic design
Explore how the intended use, body shape and airflow requirements guide the design. Updates will explain geometry choices and the questions addressed through simulation.
Composite bodywork and construction
Follow component design, tooling and construction planning. Topics will include material choices, mounting details and how the bodywork fits the vehicle.
Integration and evaluation
Explore how the components work together and how proposed changes will be assessed. Development updates will identify the evidence available and the work still to be completed.
