CSU Research Results Presented at SAE’s MSEC 2002
(12/1/2002)
In Indianapolis, in Decemeber 2002, at SAE’s Motorsport Engineering Conference, CSU Motorsport Engineering researchers presented the results of several Motorsport-related research projects. The four papers describe ongoing work in areas ranging from Nanofluid coolants to composite monocoque design. In addition, CSU Motorsport Engineering showed additional “Ongoing Program Research” in the program booths at both the SAE Conference and the Performance Racing Industry (PRI) tradeshow.
