Formula Bharat is pleased to announce MathWorks as the Platinum Level Sponsor of
Formula Bharat 2027, India’s Formula Student competition. Every participating student team can use MATLAB and Simulink at no cost, with training and direct support from MathWorks.
What MathWorks' Platinum Sponsorship Means for Formula Bharat Teams
MathWorks gives registered teams complimentary access to MATLAB and Simulink, the same tools professional engineers use for simulation, control design, and data analysis.
Teams can apply them to the problems they face while building a Formula Student car, such as:
- Vehicle dynamics and lap-time simulation
- Powertrain, battery, and motor control modelling
- Telemetry and test data analysis
- Driverless systems development
- Model-Based Design for embedded control software
