英国Bath大学的青春小组用GRP建造轻型车获两项最新的英里程(汽车消耗一加仑汽油所行的平均英里程)优胜。使推动车辆所需油量最小,该小组选择轻型的复合材料结构。因为底盘要支承引擎和一位驾驶员的重量,以及经受任何意外碰撞,强度是另一重要因素。英国Clevedon的Polymeric复合材料公司提供车外壳用材料,这是在模具内用就一层200g/m~2 The Young Group at the University of Bath in England won the most recent milestone (average miles traveled by a gallon of gasoline in a car) with a GRP for light vehicles. Minimizing the amount of fuel required to propel the vehicle, the team chose lightweight composite structures. Strength is another important factor because the chassis supports the weight of the engine and a driver, as well as any accidental impact. Polymeric composites from Clevedon, UK, provide the material for the car shell, which is used in the mold with a layer of 200g / m ~ 2
