Description:This report is attributed to the University of Cincinnati 2012-2013 Chainless Challenge team. This was a great opportunity to learn about hydraulic systems, apply knowledge taught over the last few years, and sum up a great educational experience. In the following report you will see the hard work and dedication over the course of the year that led to the design and fabrication of a human assisted hydraulic vehicle. There were many steps painstakingly taken in order to make a working vehicle worthy to compete. The knowledge and real world experience learn from this event will forever be memorable and appreciated.
