susp drive

Design and fabricate your own RC Vehicle with suitable suspension that could carry a glass of water and rush past the finishing line while travelling through a rugged terrain. Also take care to preserve as much water as you can. The basic idea encapsulating the event is to limit the overall body movement of your vehicle, as it will deviate up to various degrees in response to the driving and road conditions. Come and experience what it means for your vehicle to float like a Cadillac and sting like a Beemer in the actual, real track!

rocket

The central idea of this water rocket event is to create a rocket that can stay for the longest time in the air. The very first thing you can do is use your creativity to design, where the laws of physics are infact, same for everyone. Don’t let gravity defy you. It’s just a number, let your ideas fly. So, come up with your own rocket to survive the contest.

Experience the fun in true engineering while working with rocket propulsion and aerodynamics. One of the most fun events, it will surely leave you missing it once it's over. The purpose here is to design and manufacture a water rocket. A water rocket is a type of model rocket using water as its reaction mass. Pressure vessel - the engine of the rocket - is usually a used plastic soft drink bottle. The water is forced out by a pressurized gas, typically compressed air. It is an example of Newton's third law of motion.

Round 1: Technical Inspection

In this round, your rocket will be technically inspected by the organizing team. Rocket not meeting the below specifications will be disqualified and can’t proceed for the 2nd round.

 

  1. Construct a water-propelled rocket pressurized with air.

  2. Rocket should be self-made readymade rockets may lead to disqualification.

  3. The rocket designed must contain suitable fins so that it can maximize the flight time.

  4. The rocket must use compressed air as its energy source. A normal bicycle pump, as well as a foot pump, will be provided to compress the air. The size of the pump outlet will be the standard type available in the market. If your design has a different nozzle size, please be sure to bring your own nozzle and connecting pipe.

  5. The organizers will not provide a launcher, so teams must bring their own launcher.

  6. The rocket must use tap water as its primary reaction mass. Thrust must come from expelling reaction mass/water, not from air discharge.

 

Round 2:

Rocket staying for the maximum time in the air will be the winner. The time will be noted from the firing of the rocket.

aqua

The competition is a unique race on water testing the creative skills, assembly skills and understanding of practical problems by the participants. The participants are expected to bring to the venue a working model of a craft that is designed to cross a length of water. The competition will be judged on the basis of time of crossing the length of water. Each team will be represented by three participants.

 

Guidelines:

 

  1. The craft should be equal to or less than 12 inches in length and 8 inches in width. The height is not limited. The dimensions will be ascertained by the organizers before the race.

  2. Only battery powered crafts will be permitted. Combustion engines, per- pressurized containers or other fluids must not be used.

  3. The craft MUST NOT be operated by remote control. It can have autonomous guidance on board only.

  4. The body of the craft must be constructed by the participants themselves and must not be from any prefabricated kit, commercially available toy or a partly assembled factory made kit.

  5. Batteries of any strength and type will be allowed. All motors and propellers are allowed. All electronic components are allowed conforming to the rules above, i.e. not for remotely controlling the craft.

  6. The competition platform will have the following layout:

  7. Length: 10 meters.

  8. Width: the width will be marked by two ropes placed 1m apart across the entire length of the racing field.

  9. The ropes will be on the surface of the water. Crafts may touch the ropes and be guided by them to the finish line.

 

 

Event 1: Crossing the length of water

 

  1. At the commencement of the race, the participants may switch on the power for their crafts, align and release them in the allotted lane any-time after the starting whistle.

  2. The participants will not be permitted to propel the craft by hand.

  3. The crafts must touch the edge of the racing area which will be the finish line.

  4. Depending on the number of entrants heats may be organized. The time it takes for the craft to complete the race is noted. If a craft does not complete the race it does not move to the next round. Maximum time allowed for completing the race in 3 minutes.

  5. The competitors can make adjustments to their crafts between races.

  6.  If a craft sinks or malfunctions the participant will be disqualified. The craft will be retrieved upon the conclusion of the event by the support staff of SOME. No participant will be permitted to make any attempt to retrieve a submerged craft.

  7. A craft that jumps a lane or hinders the movement of another one in any lane is immediately disqualified.

  8. Time taken to complete the race will be the main criteria of judgment to qualify for the next round.

 

 

Event 2: Crossing the length of water and returning back to              the starting point

 

  1. At the commencement of the race, the participants may switch on the power for their crafts, align and release them in the allotted lane any-time after the starting whistle.

  2. The participants will not be permitted to propel the craft by hand.

  3. The crafts must touch the edge of the racing area and then return back on its own to the starting edge.

  4. The crafts cannot be remotely controlled to reverse their direction upon touching the edge of the racing area.

  5. The competitors can make adjustments to their crafts between races.

  6.  If a craft sinks or malfunctions the participant will be disqualified. The craft will be retrieved upon the conclusion of the event by the support staff of SOME. No participant will be permitted to make any attempt to retrieve a submerged craft.

  7. A craft that jumps a lane or hinders the movement of another one in any lane is immediately disqualified.

  8. Time taken to complete the race will be the main criteria of judgment to qualify for the next round.

We are setting the stage for our school–going budding engineers to show us their vision of a better future with some alternate energy options described via working or non-working models. Science is what makes humans stand tall amongst others. It is already there and as a matter of fact our relationship with it is something like “What one invents, the other discovers”. So the best way to decode what lies there is with the help of living polymorphs around us- the students. They are never too big to ask questions, never know too much to learn something new. Our Institute serves as a platform for the students to present their inventive ideas for tackling various environmental concerns and maintaining the sustainable development.

 

Judging Criteria

 

  1. Presentation time: 3 minutes (max.) to explain the model to the Judges (make it effective).

  2. Participant is free to make any kind of model; might be working or static.

  3. Presentation will be followed by questions from judges regarding the model.

  4. Judges' decision shall be the final verdict in case of any deadlock.

  5. Judges will evaluate the model according to certain rules

  6. Working models would be given precedence.
