- 14:22, 7 August 2025 Glossary of Formula One technical terms (hist | edit) [5,673 bytes] Formula (talk | contribs) (Created page with "__NOTOC__ This glossary provides a rigorous, academically structured definition of technical terms used in Formula One. Terms are defined in engineering and regulatory contexts, with cross-references to relevant articles. == A == ; '''Aero rake''': A sensor array used during testing to measure airflow around the car. Often mounted with pitot tubes or pressure probes. ; '''Airbox''': The intake above the driver’s head that feeds air to the engine, often integrated with...")
- 07:51, 6 August 2025 Regulations by year (hist | edit) [4,768 bytes] Formula (talk | contribs) (Created page with "This article presents an analytical history of Formula One regulation changes, focusing on their technical impact, strategic incentives, and influence on competitive balance. Changes are grouped by decade and summarised for academic reference, with formal indicators used where appropriate. == Methodology == Each regulation change is classified along three axes: * '''Domain''': Technical / Sporting / Strategic * '''Intent''': Safety / Cost / Performance convergence / Inn...")

- 07:31, 6 August 2025 Tyres and degradation models (hist | edit) [9,204 bytes] Formula (talk | contribs) (Created page with "This article specifies a race-engineering tyre model for Formula One: combined-slip force generation, transient build-up, thermal coupling, wear kinetics, circuit energy characterisation, and stint optimisation. Symbols follow motorsport literature; parameters are given as calibrated ranges suitable for lap-time simulation and strategy work. == Force generation (nonlinear, combined slip) == Baseline lateral force (Magic Formula representation): <math> F_y = D \sin\!\bi...")
- 07:09, 6 August 2025 Lap time and delta analysis (hist | edit) [8,697 bytes] Formula (talk | contribs) (Created page with "''Lap time analysis'' decomposes a lap into distance-aligned events and state variables (speed, longitudinal/lateral acceleration, throttle/brake, gear) to attribute time gains and losses to specific driver inputs, tyre states, aerodynamic conditions, and traffic effects. The goal is a quantitative, reproducible explanation of delta-time traces, enabling strategy and setup decisions (brake bias, aero level, tyre plan, shift maps). == Data channels and sampling == Recom...")
- 07:01, 6 August 2025 Race strategy modelling (hist | edit) [9,296 bytes] Formula (talk | contribs) (Created page with "= Race strategy modelling = ''Race strategy modelling'' formalises pit stop timing, tyre selection, and on-track decision rules as an optimisation problem under uncertainty (traffic, Safety Car/Virtual Safety Car, weather). The objective is to minimise total race time (or maximise expected finishing position) subject to FIA constraints and car–tyre performance envelopes. == Modelling framework == Let total race time be decomposed as: <math> T_{\text{race}} \;=\; \su...")

- 05:42, 6 August 2025 Chassis and suspension design (hist | edit) [7,844 bytes] Formula (talk | contribs) (Created page with "Formula One chassis and suspension design defines the vehicle’s mechanical grip envelope, vertical load control, and its interaction with aerodynamic structures. The system is not merely structural; it governs pitch, ride, and roll behaviour under aerodynamic and tyre-dominated force regimes at frequencies up to 20 Hz. Advanced design must account for: * Torsional and bending stiffness of the monocoque * Multibody suspension kinematics and compliance * Ride height...") Tag: Visual edit: Switched

The goal of aerodynamic design is to maximise downforce while minimising drag, maintaining airflow stability across varying yaw and pitch angles. == 1. Overview == Aerodynamics governs how air interacts with the car’s bodywork. Effective aero development allows a car to generate increased grip thr...") Tag: Visual edit
