As a part of the finite element analysis and torsion test team, we have to conduct a torsion test using a section of the rail to be used in the Superway design. There are various sizes of torsion testers, but the one available to us can fit a specimen up to 60 inches. We plan to construct the rail section using a more finalized design later in the semester, and subjecting it to a torsional force. This, in conjunction with our finite element analysis, will allow us to suggest loading capacities for the vehicle.
