They were evaluated on final weight, style,presentation, and analysis, with the latter making up the bulk of the score.The project provided several opportunities for students to connect directly with real world designissues in a way that wouldn’t have been possible without the industry partnership. For one, studentsfelt the pressure of competition to achieve the lightest wheel, just as Accuride must keep pace withindustry competitors to maintain or grow their market share. In addition, they were held account-able for weaknesses in their analysis process. For example, the industry panel quickly identifiedsharp corners
