Recreating the Ferrari @f1 2026 front wing concept — one of the most critical aerodynamic components of a Formula 1 car. This reel shows the complete timelapse of modeling the front wing geometry in CATIA, focusing on the layered wing elements, endplate integration, and precise aerodynamic surface continuity. Beyond the surface modeling, I also developed a functional mechanism using the DMU Kinematics Workbench to simulate the adaptive movement of the wing elements. The mechanism demonstrates how the front wing could open during straight-line running to reduce drag and close during cornering to increase downforce, reflecting the direction of next-generation active aerodynamics expected in the 2026 Formula 1 regulations. From detailed CAD modeling to motion simulation, this build highlights the combination of aerodynamic design, mechanism integration, and engineering visualization within a structured CATIA workflow. @scuderiaferrari @dassaultsystemes @solidworks @justformulacar @formula_aerodynamics @formula1.pitstops #catiav5 #ferrarif1 #drs #f12026 #ferrari Keywords: Ferrari F1 2026 front wing concept, Formula 1 front wing aerodynamics, Scuderia Ferrari engineering, Mercedes-AMG F1 aerodynamic philosophy, active aerodynamics concept, adaptive front wing mechanism, drag reduction concept, downforce optimization, airflow management in Formula 1, multi-element front wing design, endplate aerodynamics, vortex generation surfaces, ground effect airflow control, aerodynamic surface continuity, motorsport aerodynamic engineering, race car front wing architecture, high performance vehicle aerodynamics, next generation F1 regulations 2026, FIA aerodynamic evolution, dynamic aero surfaces, drag vs downforce balance, CATIA V5 CAD modeling, advanced surface modeling, parametric CAD design, 3D automotive modeling, digital prototyping workflow, engineering visualization, CATIA assembly design, DMU Kinematics Workbench simulation, mechanism motion study, kinematic constraints design, mechanical linkage simulation, aerodynamic component modeling, motorsport CAD development, precision engineering workflow, automotive concept design, performance oriented design thinking,

Recreating the viral Ferrari @f1 2026 rear wing concept featuring the unique 180° flip DRS mechanism. In this reel, you can see the full timelapse of modeling the rear wing geometry along with the functional flip mechanism. Beyond replicating the aerodynamic surfaces, the focus was on understanding the kinematic logic behind such an extreme drag reduction concept — hinge axis placement, rotation limits, load paths, and packaging feasibility. With the 2026 Formula 1 regulations emphasizing reduced drag, energy efficiency, and aero optimization, rear wing concepts are evolving rapidly. Unlike conventional DRS systems that simply open a flap, the 180° flip concept explores a dramatic reorientation of the wing element to significantly reduce drag on straights. While highly ambitious and mechanically challenging, it represents the direction of next-generation aerodynamic thinking — where aerodynamics and mechanical systems must work seamlessly together. This build reflects the balance between surface modeling precision and mechanism integration. A compact component, yet a complex engineering challenge — broken down strategically and executed step by step. @scuderiaferrari @dassaultsystemes @solidworks #catiav5 #ferrarif1 #drs #f12026 #rearwing Keywords: Scuderia Ferrari, Ferrari F1 Team, Ferrari Formula 1, Ferrari 2026 concept, F1 2026 regulations, Ferrari rear wing, Ferrari DRS system, 180 degree flip wing, innovative DRS mechanism, active aerodynamics, Formula 1 aerodynamics, rear wing assembly, high downforce configuration, low drag setup, drag reduction system, F1 rear wing design, endplate geometry, flap mechanism, aerodynamic efficiency, hybrid era F1, next generation F1 car, race car aerodynamics, motorsport engineering, high performance vehicle design, kinematic mechanism design, hinge axis modeling, motion study, mechanical linkage system, precision CAD modeling, surface continuity, Class A surfacing, automotive CAD, advanced parametric modeling, engineering visualization, digital prototyping, FIA technical regulations, aero load management, structural integrity analysis, performance optimization, racing technology innovation, computational desig

Over the past three intensive working days, I designed a full-scale @f1 2026 concept model entirely in CATIA V5. The process involved translating regulatory geometry into manufacturable CAD surfaces, maintaining aerodynamic proportions, and ensuring proper part breakdown for structural integrity and assembly feasibility. This project reflects the importance of structured thinking, planning for manufacturability, and approaching complex systems with clarity and discipline. Proud to have built this using CATIA V5.

Designed my own modified version of an f1 floor using CATIA V5 R21 @dassaultsystemes Inspired by modern ground-effect era designs, I focused on the overall floor geometry, tunnel shaping, and flow paths rather than creating an exact replica. The goal was to understand how floor design contributes massively to downforce generation in current F1 cars. The floor works by accelerating airflow through the venturi tunnels, creating low pressure underneath the car. This suction effect pulls the car closer to the ground, generating high downforce with relatively low drag. Key elements like the floor edges, channels, and diffuser entry play a crucial role in sealing airflow and maintaining stability. In this concept, I experimented with modified tunnel profiles and edge shaping to study how small geometric changes can influence airflow direction and efficiency. While not aerodynamically validated, this model helped in understanding the core principles of ground effect, airflow management, and race car performance. From concept → design → analysis mindset → refinement. Still exploring and improving with each iteration. #catiav5 #formula1 #f1 #f12026 #catia Keywords: F1, Formula1, F12026, F1Tech, F1Engineering, FloorDesign, GroundEffect, VenturiTunnels, Aerodynamics, Downforce, DragReduction, Diffuser, MotorsportEngineering, RaceCarEngineering, F1Innovation, CAD, CATIA, CATIAV5, DMUKinematics, Kinematics, EngineeringDesign, ProductDevelopment, MechanicalEngineering, AutomotiveEngineering, 3DModeling, DesignEngineering, Simulation, DigitalPrototype, CAE, InnovationEngineering, F1Drivers, MaxVerstappen, LewisHamilton, CharlesLeclerc, LandoNorris, CarlosSainz, GeorgeRussell, FernandoAlonso, OscarPiastri, SergioPerez, RedBullRacing, MercedesAMGF1, FerrariF1, McLarenF1, AstonMartinF1, MaxVerstappenChampion, RedBullDominance, F1Season, F1Highlights, RaceEngineering, StudentEngineer, EngineerLife, BuildInPublic, DesignProcess, LearnByDoing, FutureEngineer, StartupEngineer, InnovationJourney

Modeled the sidepods of a @scuderiaferrari 2026-inspired concept using CATIA V5 R21 @dassaultsystemes Focused on capturing the aggressive undercut, tight packaging, and flow-guiding contours seen in modern F1 designs. The objective was to match proportions and understand how geometry directly influences airflow behavior around the car. Working of sidepods: Sidepods manage airflow along the car while housing critical cooling systems like radiators and intercoolers. The inlet controls how much air enters for cooling, while the outer and lower surfaces guide high-energy airflow toward the floor and diffuser. The undercut helps accelerate airflow, improving floor sealing and increasing overall downforce efficiency, while minimizing drag. Effectiveness of this design: Based on trends and analysis from recent F1 aero concepts, aggressive undercut sidepods (like Ferrari’s philosophy) aim to balance cooling efficiency with aerodynamic performance. Compared to wider or bulkier designs, this approach improves airflow to the rear and enhances diffuser performance. However, it demands extremely tight internal packaging and precise airflow management—making it harder to optimize across different track conditions. This model is not an exact replica, but a design study to understand real F1 aero logic, airflow management, and packaging constraints. #f1 #formula1 #ferrarif1 #sidepods #dassaultsystemes Keywords: F1, Formula1, F12026, F1Tech, F1Engineering, Sidepods, Aerodynamics, Downforce, DragReduction, AeroDesign, ActiveAero, MotorsportEngineering, RaceCarEngineering, F1Innovation, CAD, CATIA, CATIAV5, DMUKinematics, Kinematics, MechanismDesign, MotionSimulation, EngineeringDesign, ProductDevelopment, MechanicalEngineering, AutomotiveEngineering, 3DModeling, DesignEngineering, Simulation, DigitalPrototype, CAE, InnovationEngineering, F1Drivers, MaxVerstappen, LewisHamilton, CharlesLeclerc, LandoNorris, CarlosSainz, GeorgeRussell, FernandoAlonso, OscarPiastri, SergioPerez, RedBullRacing, MercedesAMGF1, FerrariF1, McLarenF1, AstonMartinF1, MaxVerstappenChampion, RedBullDominance, F1Season, F1Highlights, RaceEngineering, StudentEngineer, EngineerLife, BuildInPublic

Designed and simulated my own concept of an F1 DRS actuator using CATIA V5 R21 🏎️ This is not an exact replication of the real F1 DRS system, but a simplified mechanical approach to understand how actuation and linkage systems behave. I used a custom rack & pinion mechanism combined with connected links to translate motion into rear wing movement. The rear wing doesn’t fully open due to limitations in my mechanism design, but this project was focused on learning kinematics, motion transfer, and mechanical constraints in real-world applications. Explored DMU Kinematics workbench to simulate opening (low drag – straight line) and closing (high drag – corners) behavior of the wing. From concept → modeling → mechanism → simulation. Still improving the design and pushing for better efficiency. @dassaultsystemes @solidworks @catia_plus @scuderiaferrari @f1 @mercedesamgf1 @astonmartinf1 @mclarenf1 #catiav5 #f12026 #drs #formula1 #f1 Keywords: F1, Formula1, F12026, F1Tech, F1Engineering, DRS, DRSSystem, RearWing, Aerodynamics, ActiveAero, MotorsportEngineering, RaceCarEngineering, F1Innovation, CAD, CATIA, CATIAV5, DMUKinematics, Kinematics, MechanismDesign, RackAndPinion, LinkageMechanism, MotionSimulation, EngineeringDesign, ProductDevelopment, MechanicalEngineering, AutomotiveEngineering, 3DModeling, DesignEngineering, Simulation, DigitalPrototype, CAE, InnovationEngineering, F1Drivers, MaxVerstappen, LewisHamilton, CharlesLeclerc, LandoNorris, CarlosSainz, GeorgeRussell, FernandoAlonso, OscarPiastri, SergioPerez, RedBullRacing, MercedesAMGF1, FerrariF1, McLarenF1, AstonMartinF1, MaxVerstappenChampion, RedBullDominance, F1Season, F1Highlights, RaceEngineering, Downforce, DragReduction, StudentEngineer, EngineerLife, BuildInPublic, DesignProcess, LearnByDoing, FutureEngineer, StartupEngineer, InnovationJourney

Designed and simulated a simplified automotive transmission system in CATIA V5 to demonstrate how power flows from engine to wheels. The model showcases a single-cylinder engine generating rotational motion, transferring torque through a primary transmission shaft to an elevated secondary shaft via a dual universal joint mechanism. The motion is then delivered to a differential assembly with internal gear arrangement, distributing power to the rear wheels. The objective was to clearly visualize real-world drivetrain fundamentals through structured 3D assembly design. This reel captures the complete timelapse of assembly creation followed by motion validation using the CATIA Kinematics Workbench.

This cinematic sequence began with the F1 2026 model I designed in CATIA. After completing the CAD development, I rendered the model in KeyShot, refining the visuals by adding accurate colors, materials, textures, and detailed labels to enhance realism and presentation quality. Once the renders were finalized, I experimented with visual storytelling. The rendered images were processed through Nano Banana to generate atmospheric underwater still frames, transforming the engineering model into dramatic submerged compositions. These still frames were then used inside Kling AI to generate a cinematic underwater motion sequence, converting static renders into a dynamic visual narrative. This project represents a complete digital workflow—from CAD engineering and high-quality rendering to AI-assisted cinematic generation—blending technical precision with creative exploration. @dassaultsystemes @nanobanana_ia @googlegemini.app @klingai_official @keyshot3d #f12026 #catiav5 #klingai #nanobanana #keyshot Keywords: CATIA V5/V6, Dassault Systèmes platform, F1 2026 technical regulations, Formula 1 car architecture, parametric CAD modeling, advanced surface modeling, Class-A surfacing, complex geometry development, aerodynamic bodywork design, front wing assembly, rear wing integration, floor and diffuser geometry, sidepod packaging, suspension layout modeling, wheel and tire detailing, monocoque structure design, digital prototyping, design for additive manufacturing, 3D printing compatibility, modular part segmentation, assembly strategy planning, tolerance management, scalable model development, manufacturability optimization, product engineering workflow, precision dimensioning, mechanical design methodology, automotive engineering principles, high-performance vehicle modeling, structural layout planning, component breakdown strategy, CAD data management, engineering visualization, rapid prototyping readiness, innovation-driven design process, technical execution, performance-oriented modeling, and end-to-end virtual product development.

Agreon Type X Avian Ballistic Aerodynamics This concept was born from observing the aggressive dive of a kingfisher — a moment where nature transforms into a precise, aerodynamic projectile. During its strike, the bird folds its wings, sharpens its profile, and commits fully to a single direction. That ballistic posture became the core inspiration behind this hypercar. The design language focuses on a strong forward wedge stance, sharp faceted surfaces, deep side aero channels, and a widened rear that represents energy dispersion after impact. From the top view, the body narrows and stretches like a diving silhouette. From the side, the posture remains low, tense, and directional — almost frozen mid-dive. Slide 1 shows the 3D AI rendering developed using @openai , strictly based on my original proportions and surface breaks. Slide 2 shows the original hand sketch that defined the form, stance, and aerodynamic intent. This project explores how natural ballistic motion can translate into automotive surface geometry — not just visually, but conceptually.
