    Throttle Body Cam Design

    I probably should have stated in the first question that we are more stuck with actaully determining the radius of the cam for the desired ramp. We know we want the cam to have an increasing ramp rate (slow at closed - faster at open) and it is just the mathematical approach to determining the...

    Throttle Body Cam Design

    Its efi. Like i said previously, the guy has a curve comparing degree open with frontal area of the space between butterfly and throttle body casing. This rleationship isnt linear but has a slight curve to it. I was personally thinking that the inverse of the curve could essentially be the...

    Throttle Body Cam Design

    Hi all, I have a mate in my motorsport team that is having to design the throttle cam. He has 22mm of cable travel available and he has also determined a relationship between frontal area of the throttle butterfly compared to its degree of rotation. Any ideas or suggestions as to what to do...

    coil over shock friction

    Is it possible to quantify the amount of friction between a coil spring and shock as a result of the spring twisting during linear deflection? I have been trying to mathematically define this but I am finding it a little difficult. Cheers

    Coil spring rotation during linear deflection

    Is it true that a coil spring will rotate abouts its vertical axis when it is deflected in the vertical direction? I have a coil over shock absorber arrangement (like ones seen on rear suspension mountain bikes) and I am wanting to try qauntify the amount of rotation the spring will have during...
