Wiring Harness This is an assembly of wires and electrical components which transmits electrical power from battery to various electrical devices in a vehicle.        Connector 1 Connectors are the electro-mechanical devices used to form a continuous electronic signal to connect wire harnesses to a power source or circuit.…

Fender Design Fender is a sheet metal body part of an automobile , attached side of the engine compartment and top of the wheel. When a vehicle is in motion it tends to throw mud, debris, stone chips fro the road from its wheel, which could be dangerous for the pedestrians. So fender is given to protect the pedestrians…

Fender Design - Wheel Arch Challenge Fender is the sheet metal cover of wheel or the engine compartment. It is attached to the side frame of a car. Its main purpose is to prevent sand, stone particles or mud being thrown inside the engine compartment or outside to any pedastrian. Wheel arch is the semi circular plastic…

Section modulus Section Modulus is the geometric property of the given cross-section of any shaft or beam structures. It is the direct measure of the strength of the shaft section or the beam section. Higher the section modulus of a structure, the more the resistive it becomes to bending. Section modulus is defined…

Hood Design Hood is a hinged cover infront of the vehicle. It can be opened and closed for maintanence of the engine or other accesories. Hood is generally made of two components those are inner panel and outer panel. It also has two additional components two hinges and one striker. The hood is manufactured using sheet…

Under body coating Its a coating done on car under body to protect it from corrosion. Just like how people require shelter and additional care, cars need them too. Just parking your car inside a garage will not solve the problem as the car is exposed to ever-changing weather conditions especially in a country like…

Benchmarking Automotive benchmarking refers to the systematic comparison of processes, services, and products in the automobile industry. This involves intensive research and even collaboration of companies to compare their processes, services, and products being offered to the public. The purpose of benchmarking is to…

Development of a forward energy-based fuel consumption model of a P1 hybrid vehicle       In the  P1 hybrid vehicle model with the electric machine connected directly to the crankshaft, It is developed by Honda for their Integrated Motor Assist technology. The electric motor functions as a…

Development of a forward energy-based fuel consumption model of a conventional vehicle Conventional vehicles are run by internal combustion engines powered by either petrol or diesel. They run on the principle of otto cyle or diesel cycle. The burning of air fuel mixture inside the engine cylinder generates pressurized…

Carry out a system-level simulation of an all-terrain vehicle.    An all-terrain vehicle (ATV) is defined as a motorized off-highway vehicle designed to travel on four low-pressure or non-pneumatic tires.The rider sits on and operates these vehicles like a motorcycle, but the extra wheels give more stability…

1. Implement control logic of a “washing machine” using Stateflow as per given sequence:  If the power supply is available, the system gets activated  If the Water supply is not available, stop the process & indicate through LED Soaking time should be 200s followed by Washing time of 100s. Then…

Make a Simulink model of Doorbell using solenoid block with the following details:     In the above arrangement, when the switch is closed the electromagnet receives electrical power from the battery and pulls the metal arm to hit the bell producing sound. Create a situation where the switch is…

Parsing NASA Thermodynamic Data -  File Parsing is a process of extracting data from an m file. Then utlising that data later on a program. In the given THERMO.dat file we have coeffiecient values of different species and in several temperature ranges, we will use that data to calculate molecular weight, Specific…

Write a code in MATLAB to optimise the stalagmite function and find the global maxima of the function -    Genetic Algorithm - It is a search-based optimization technique inspired by Charles Darwin's Theory of Natural Evolution. This algorithm reflects the process of natural selection where the…
