Carbon Fiber Seat

Carbon fiber seat for RISD Astro’s Human Exploration Rover Challenge.

Positive mold was first hand sculpted out of foam and a negative was made from fiberglass epoxy. Final part is prepreg twill carbon fiber and epoxy. 2 primary layers, the first follows the twill up and down and the second is offset by 45°. One extra layer is found only at the bolsters and another layer is applied only to the circumference’s rim.

Design considerations include driver comfort and strength-to-weight optimization.
