Departments

aerodynamics

We work on the design, manufacture and validation of both cars' aero packages, and also ensure their adequate cooling. We use benchmark techniques and materials, such as carbon fiber or kevlar. The ARTs fly on the racetrack thanks to the wings we give them.

Business

A department made up by versatile and multidisciplinary members, we have taken ARUS to the Business Plan Presentation Event podium the last three years. We have close contact with sponsors and also help the team with internal management tasks, providing a different and innovative perspective.

Chassis

Responsible for the frame of the cars. We design and manufacture their chassis and internal structure, ensuring proper torsional stiffness and safety to the drivers, while also planning the manufacture of a chassis made of composite materiales.

vehicle dynamics

The team's race enginners. We are a multidisciplinary department involved in the design of the cars which, thanks to simulation softwares and track data acquisition and analysis, tries to optimise their setup and performance. We are also in charge of driver's training.

cost & manufacturing

We carry out, together with all other departments, global analyses about essential aspects of the team, such as the detailed Bill of Materials of both cars, financial management or trade-off decisions.

marketing & communication

We manage the corporate image of the team, creating new graphics and audiovisual content. From merchandising, dossiers or presentations to the edition of videos and pictures taken at events and competitions.

e-powertrain

We take care of the electrical systems that give life to our electric car. Our job is to get the high voltage battery, inverter and motor to work in complete synergy to achieve optimal performance.

electronics

We assemble the nervous system of our cars, designing and manufacturing all electronic systems in printed circuit boards, trying to ensure proper control and security, and also gathering plenty of useful information to improve laptimes and reliability.

ergonomics

Our tasks are all related to the drivers. We design, manufacture and validate all systems connecting them to the ARTs, so they can extract their full potential. We are the last department to work on the cars before they go out to the track.

suspension

Always aiming to get an optimal dynamic behaviour of the cars, we design, manufacture and validate the braking, steering and suspension systems of both cars.

powertrain

We make sure that the heart of the combustion car never stops beating, maintaining it and designing parts of the drivetrain. We are also responsible for transmission and cooling systems in the electric vehicle.
