CONCEPT SCORING
CRITERIA DEFINITION
0 = least efficient
3 = average efficiency
5 = most efficient
CATEGORIES
Balance = distribution of mass throughout the AEV (depending on components and design)
Power Efficiency = how much power would be required to move the AEV, influenced by aerodynamics and weight)
Weight = mass of the whole AEV (based on components and design)
Speed = how fast they AEV could possibly go (based on aerodynamics and weight)
Braking Distance = (based on weight and aerodynamics)
Overall Style = appealing to the public eye, easy to understand
CONCEPT SCREENING
CRITERIA DEFINITION
(-) = least efficient
0 = neutral
+ = max efficiency
CATEGORIES
Stability = balance and ability to hold together
Min. Blockage = aerodynamic of the AEV/ ability to glide through the air (lack of friction)/design
Maintenance = materials needed to maintain and fix AEV, availability of the materials/ease of fixing AEV
Durability = AEV has a stable structure, that will not break with ease. The design is stable.
Safety = design does not seem like it’ll break easily/ stable/ Aerodynamic efficiency
