Aerodynamics
- This page is souly devoted to AERODYNAMICS. This is a part of a Pysical
Science project conducted by Dr. Brown. This is a page of relating links
that have to do with the topice at hand. We will show you all sorts of
aerodynamics ideas in the pictures below. The links listed at the bottom
are manly car companys and car customisers. The pictures shown are of real
and ordinary cars found in any general neighborhood.

- PROS: Wide axel base allows for optimim stability and steering, curved
mirrors for least wind resistance. Eith wider tires for better control
and optimim road coverage.
-
- CONS: It has a a very blocked off body design. But it is very tall
and wide and it could be very easily over turned in a heavy wind storm.
And once you really get going like on the freeway it has a tedency to catch
the wind coming toward the van.
- PROS: This is an optimim performance car it is very low to the ground
whichaccounts for is ability for turns and least wind resistance. It also
has curved mirrors and a slanted rear mirror if you look closly it also
has optimum exaust pipes.
- CONS: It has places where it can conceal air pockets and just sit their
and some what creat a dragging feeling of lopsiddedness. It is hard to
tell but the car is reasonably small and even though the bottom of the
car itself isn't all that low to the ground the whole car isn't very tall
and that could take part in some problems in handling such as it can't
take head winds really easily.
-
- PROS: The truck it self has no real appearent aerodynamic qualities
probably because it was made in 1993 and the car producers were not too
concerened with aerodynamics but does have airdirectores on the hood so
at high speeds (75 mph or more) it will direct the wind off to the sides
instead of over to top.
-
- CONS: It does not have curved mirrors so the wind will sometimes catch
on that and will make the mirrors rattle or vibrate,It also has a sharply
up rising wind sheild.
