The function of this car is to provide convenience to the soldiers in the civil area warzone. Unlike other
army vehicles, this car has broad tires which works well on the road. The car has four forward gears &
four reverse gears. So after firing on the target the driver has no need to waste the time in turning the
vehicle. As the differential is fixed in all other vehicles but in this project we placed a modified moving
differential. Which changes its position between the forward and the reverse gear drive shafts. Hence
provide convenience to the gear shifting. The car has chassis less construction. i.e., the body has directly
mounted on the frame of the car with the help of fasteners. The car body is made up of fiberglass, we used
the approach of clay modeling in the designing of the molds and the virtual design of the car body is
designed under Catia V5. The parts of the car has been taken from the junkyard, the flushed cleaned,
greased or oiled , fitted , modified if needed, tested and then painted and finally assembled in the vehicle.
Design Modification and Analysis of Automobile Wheel Rim using Finite Element...ijsrd.com
Importance of wheel in the automobile is obvious. The vehicle may be towed without the engine but at the same time even that is also not possible without the wheels, the wheels along the tire has to carry the vehicle load, provide cushioning effect and cope with the steering control. Generally wheel spokes are the supports consisting of a radial member of a wheel joining the hub to the rim. Spokes make vehicles look great but at the same time they require attention in maintenance. To perform their functions best, the spokes must be kept under the right amount of tension. If a spoke does break, the wheel generally becomes instantly unbalanced also the hub may break. The purpose of the car wheel rim provides a firm base on which to fit the tire. The motorcycle riders are subjected to extreme vibrations due to the vibrations of its engine, improper structural design of the motorcycle and the bad road conditions. So in this project the attempt has been made to reduce the vibrations of vehicle by providing springs instead of the spokes at the wheel. The springs will work as suspension members at wheels as well as they will provide proper strength that is adequate to proper operation of the wheel. The CAD model of a motor cycle will be made in solid works and later it is analyzed in ANSYS 14.5. The results of suspension of ordinary wheel rim and spring based rim will be compared.

Radial Fatigue Analysis of An Alloy WheelIJERA Editor
Importance of wheel in the automobile is obvious. The vehicle (car) may be towed without the engine but at the same time even that is also not possible without the wheels, the wheels along the tyre has to carry the vehicle load, provide cushioning effect and cope with the steering control. The main requirements of an automobile wheel are; it must be strong enough to perform the above functions. It should be balanced both statically as well as dynamically. It should be lightest possible so that the unsprung weight is least. The Wheel has to pass three types of tests before going into production, they are Cornering fatigue test, Radial fatigue test and Impact test. In this thesis radial fatigue analysis is done to find the number of cycles at which the wheel is going to fail. The 2D of the wheel was created in MDT, the drafting package and the same was exported to ANSYS, the finite element package using IGES translator where the 3D model of the wheel is created. The wheel is meshed using SOLID 45 element. A load of 2500N was applied on the hub area of the wheel and a pressure of 0.207N/mm2 is applied on the outer surface of the rim. The pitch circle holes are constrained in all degrees of freedom. The analysis is carried under these constraints and the results are taken to carryout for further analysis i.e. fatigue module to find the life of the wheel.

GEOMETRICAL AND MATERIAL OPTIMIZATION OF ALLOY WHEEL FOR FOUR WHEELERIjripublishers Ijri
Alloy wheels are automobile wheels which are made from an alloy of aluminum or magnesium metals or sometimes a
mixture of both. Alloy wheels differ from normal steel wheels because of their lighter weight, which improves the steering
and the speed of the car. Alloy wheels will reduce the unstrung weight of a vehicle compared to one fitted with standard
steel wheels. The benefit of reduced unstrung weight is more precise steering as well as a nominal reduction in fuel
consumption.

STUDY OF RECAST LAYERS AND SURFACE ROUGHNESS ON AL-7075 METAL MATRIX COMPOSIT...ijmech
Demand for low weight to strength ratio for exclusive application in automobile and aerospace components created scope for advance studies on Metal Matrix Composites (MMCs). However, machining of MMCs challenges for conventional machining processes due to uneven hardness, matrix of composites and undesired tool life. Electric Discharge Machining (EDM) is one of the unconventional material removal process, which offers alternatives for machining of MMCs because, being a non-contact process it can be machine excessive harder material, intricate shape with better surface finish and tool life. The evolved heat during EDM process and subsequent flushing of machined debris and rapidly resolidified layer is formed by the re-solidification of residual molten material on the machined surface during the EDM process leaves behind recast layers which is extremely hard and brittle. In the presents study optimization of process parameters to minimize the surface roughness of the rapidly resolidified layer of Al 7075 MMC while
machining using EDM process is carried out using the Taguchi tequniues. The gap current, pulse on-time and pulse off-time were considered as process parameters. The formation of resolidified layers is investigated in terms of the surface roughness as response variables inside the hole and near the hole while EDM drilling.

In this paper, attempt has been made to minimize sound reflection from the wall by using Taguchi’s method and to find optimal structure for the suggested test-section inside the cavitation tunnel. The suggested structure which was added to the test-section is funnel-shaped with a performance like a check valve. In order to obtain approximate values of five independent parameters, three levels were taken into account for each parameter. By combining parameters of different levels, 27 tests were designed using Taguchi’s method and Minitab Software. Different acoustic analyses were conducted in COMSOL Multiphysics software, and defined parameter of general reflection coefficient was obtained for 21 observer points. Applying the general reflection coefficients to Minitab Software and drawing the SNR graph, approximate values of the parameters were obtained. However, these values did not produce enough accuracy to design the optimal structure. For this reason, five levels around optimal values, obtained from the previous analysis, were considered for each parameter. Same steps were repeated again for the parameters at five
levels and optimal values were obtained. Optimal structure was modelled and analyzed. Consequently, appropriate defined parameters of general and local reflection coefficients were extracted which represented an optimal structure for the intended test section.

Application of value stream mapping tool to reduce wastes in bearing industryijmech
In today’s highly competitive business environment, companies require improvement in Production Lead
Times, costs and customer service levels to survive. Because of this, companies have become more
customers focused. The result is that companies have been putting in significant effort to improve their
efficiency.
This paper present the practical application of Value Stream Mapping (VSM) tool implement in a bearing
industry. A value stream is an assortment of all actions (value added as well as non-value added) that are
required to bring a product through the essential flows, starting with raw material and ending with the
customer. For drawing current state value stream mapping, all relevant data has been collected and analyzed. Then analysis of current state map has been done for identifying non-value adding activities, in
other words waste and suggestions on how to remove or reduce different wastes. From the results achieved
by current VSM, it was observable that the two processes Annealing and CNC Machining have higher cycle
time and WIP. In order to increase their capacity, their cycle should be reduced.
By implementing some lean principles and changes in the production line, the future state map was created and the reduction the different types of wastes reduced. The total processing time was reduced from 409
seconds to 344 seconds.
Suppressing undesired vibration of 3 r robot arms using impact dampersijmech
The behavior of a vibration system suppressed with an impact damper is investigated, where the impact
damper is simplified as a combination of spring and viscous damping. The analytical answer for the contact duration is developed using iteration perturbation technique. Iteration perturbation is a new analytical technique which can solve strongly nonlinear equations. In the presented work an impact damper is used to reduce the undesired vibration of an industrial robot arm. For this reason a 3R robot is equipped with a simple model of a single unit impact damper which is constructed using spring, mass and viscous damper. The output forces of robot with and without impact damper are compared and effects of using the impact damper on correct application of the robot are shown
ANALYSIS OF EMISSION CHARACTERISTIC OF NM-DIESEL BLEND ON VCR DIESEL ENGINEijmech
The consumption of fuel is increasing resulting in pollution of environment with smoke and NOx due to the
development in automobile and power sector. These emission contents smoke and NOx can be reduced by
adding additives with diesel fuel. As these additives are very costly and hence becomes unviable. These
additives decrease the performance of combustion.
Oxygenated compounds are most widely used among additives. The reason for this is the participation of
their oxygen in reactions leading to better combustion and hence lowering the emission contents the
molecular structure of the oxygen contents of additives directly influence on smoke reduction and the
oxygen concentration of the fuel flame also effects the emission specially Nitro paraffin compound
additives have high oxygen contents is then molecular structure. So we considered as oxygenated
additives.
We have used nitro methane (NM) (2%) as an additives with diesel while analyzing the emission
characteristic on VCR Engine
Gas foil bearing analysis and the effect of bump foil thickness on its perfor...ijmech
Gas foil bearings (GFBs) satisfy many of the requirements noted for novel oil-free turbomachinery.However, GFBs have a limited load carrying capacity. This paper presents a numerical model in order to assess the performance characteristics of gas foil bearings. The finite difference scheme has been used to discretize the governing Reynolds equation and the pressure is calculated by solving non-linear matrix equation using Newton-Raphson technique. The static performance analysis has been carried out. The computational analysis have been compared with the experimental and theoretical results available in the literature and the effects of bump foil thickness, number of bumps and bump compliance coefficient on the load carrying capacity at different rotor speed have been investigated. The results of the study show that too thin bump foil thickness may lead to a significant decrease in the load capacity. However for accurate predictions of the foil bearing performances, more details foil structure of 1D and 2D finite element model
should be considered.
Dynamic aerodynamic structural coupling numerical simulation on the flexible ...ijmech
Most biological flyers undergo orderly deformation in flight, and the deformations of wings lead to complex fluid-structure interactions. In this paper, an aerodynamic-structural coupling method of flapping wing is developed based on ANSYS to simulate the flapping of flexible wing.
Firstly, a three-dimensional model of the cicada’s wing is established. Then, numerical simulation method of unsteady flow field and structure calculation method of nonlinear large deformation are studied basing on Fluent module and Transient Structural module in ANSYS,
the examples are used to prove the validity of the method. Finally, Fluent module and Transient Structural module are connected through the System Coupling module to make a two-way fluidstructure Coupling computational framework. Comparing with the rigid wing of a cicada, the
coupling results of the flexible wing shows that the flexible deformation can increase the aerodynamic performances of flapping flight.
PREDICTION OF REPAIR & MAINTENANCE COSTS OF DIESEL ENGINEijmech
Diesel engine is widely use for different applications, the failure frequency of diesel engine is more increase to increase the age & use of engine in order to take decision to replacement of engine on the basis of Repair & Maintenance cost (R&M) & predication of future Repair & Maintenance costs of diesel engine used in Borewell compressor. Present case study discusses prediction of accumulated R&M costs (Y) of Diesel engine against usage in hours (X). Recorded data from the company service station is used to determine regression models for predicting total R&M costs based on total usage hours. The statistical results of the study indicates that in order to predict total R&M costs is more useful for replacement
decisions than annual charge.
ANALYSIS OF THE EFFECT OF ULTRASONIC VIBRATIONS ON THE PERFORMANCE OF MICROEL...ijmech
The application of ultrasonic vibrations to a workpiece or tool is a novel hybrid approach in microelectrical discharge achining. The advantages of this method include effective lushing out of debris, higher machining efficiency and lesser short-circuits during machining. This paper presents a systematic analysis of the influence of kinetic effects of the ultrasonic vibrations on the material removal rate (MRR)
and tool electrode wear rate (TWR). The tool wear ratio was estimated for the process at all processing conditions. The maximum variation in tool wear ratio is observed to be 82%. Therefore, MRR and TWR were independently analyzed by using three scientific tools: i) AOM plots, ii) interaction plots and iii) three-dimensional scatter plots. The increase in MRR is 47% corresponding to an increase in the maximum
power of vibrations by 30%. The ultrasonic vibrations are found to be very effective at higher machining depths for achieving stable machining conditions. Regression equations were developed for MRR and TWR with capacitance, ultrasonic vibration factor, feed rate and machining time.

The enhancement of natural convection heat transfer using nanofluids from horizontal square cylinder
placed in a square enclosure is investigated numerically. Water-based Cu is used as the working nanofluid.
The investigation covered a range of Rayleigh numbers of 104
- 106
, nanoparticles volume fraction of
(0<ϕ≤0.2), enclosure width to cylinder height ratio, W/H of 2.5. The investigation includes the solution of
the governing equations in the Vorticity-Stream function space with the aid of a body fitted coordinate
system. Algebraic grid generation is used in the initial transformations, followed by an elliptic
transformation to complete the grid generation to computational domain. The resulting discretized system
of equations is solved using an ADI method. The built code is validated and the results showed an increase
in average Nusselt number with increasing the volume fraction of the nanoparticles for the whole range of
Rayleigh number. The isotherms are nearly similar when the volume fraction of nanoparticles is increased
from 0 to 0.2 for each Rayleigh number but a change in the streamlines is observed.

OPTIMIZATION AND FATIGUE ANALYSISOF A CRANE HOOK USING FINITE ELEMENT METHODijmech
Stress analysis plays an important role in the design of structures like crane hook under loading conditions.
Crane hook is a reliable lifting component being used in industries. Structure failure of crane hook occurs
because of the stress induced due to repetitive loading and unloading conditions. In this study, solid
modeling of crane hook having trapezoidal cross-section referring to one of its existing design is done
using SOLIDWORKS. Further, analyses are carried out in ANSYS Workbench and nCode DesignLife. The
lengths of two parallel sides of the cross-section of crane hook are varied and different candidates are
obtained for loading capacity of 30 ton on the basis of Mass, total Displacement and Von-Mises stress.This
is done to reduce weight and balance economy. Further, out of these candidates, best candidates are
considered and fatigue analysis is performed on these candidates.
RENEWABLE ENERGY ALTERNATIVE FOR WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANTS IN TRINIDAD - A ...ijmech
The feasibility of using solar photovoltaic (PV) as an alternative to power a waste water treatment plant
(WWTP) in Trinidad was investigated. The site data and power consumption of the Orangefield WWTP
was used to size a PV system with and without grid tied and tracking and non-tracking options. Present day
costing was determined and a simple payback period for Trinidad and Tobago was calculated. The
analysis indicated a minimum and maximum payback period of 27 years and 97.4 years, respectively.
Therefore, in Trinidad and Tobago, even the most cost effective PV system was not financially feasible. A
comparative payback period for neighbouring countries of Barbados and St. Vincent, with three times
higher power cost than Trinidad and Tobago, indicated that solar power is more attractive and feasible
with a minimum and maximum payback period of 9.1 and 8.6 years and 32.8 and 31.2 years, respectively

OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND ERGONOMIC INTERVENTION IN INDIAN SMALL SCALE INDUSTRI...ijmech
The small scale industries (SSIs) play very important role in the Indian economy. SSIs contribute in terms
of industrial production, export, employment and creation of an entrepreneurial base for the country. In
most of the SSIs in India, either traditionally designed tools are used or manual work is performed. Long
hours work with traditionally designed tools and un-ergonomic work places can cause musculoskeletal
disorders (MSDs) and other occupational health problems among workers. Workers well-being is highly
associated with the productivity and cost benefits of small scale industries. This review paper aims to
identify various MSDs and occupational health problems among workers in SSIs. The effects of ergonomic
interventions for improved occupational healthas well as productivity enhancement and cost benefits of
SSIs are also reviewed in paper.

Design, analysis and performance evaluation of a mechanical gyratorIjrdt Journal
The project focuses on the development of an efficient and safe system for navigation for disabled people. Such a system should enable the user to control with minimum effort and should be stable in all practical situations. A gyrator is neither a motorcycle nor a four wheeler. It is a vehicle made up of an inner frame which is encompassed and supported by two large coaxially aligned wheels. The inner frame is supported by a common axle as a result, is free to oscillate back and forth relative to outer wheels. The inherent instability has limited its potential as a commercially available vehicle. But by reducing this oscillation to an optimum value by incorporating internal braking, we could make a very stable navigation system. In order to achieve motion, a shift in the centre of gravity of the inner frame is required. Two independent electric motors provide the driving torque to gearbox which drives the large outer wheels. This unique design gives the vehicle a clear advantage over conventional 4wheeled and 2wheeled vehicles as it has zero turning radius. Key word:- Inflation Pressure, Pressure switch ,Pressure guage, Solenoid control valve, DC Compressor.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

ABSTRACT
The function of this car is to provide convenience to the soldiers in the civil area warzone. Unlike other
army vehicles, this car has broad tires which works well on the road. The car has four forward gears &
four reverse gears. So after firing on the target the driver has no need to waste the time in turning the
vehicle. As the differential is fixed in all other vehicles but in this project we placed a modified moving
differential. Which changes its position between the forward and the reverse gear drive shafts. Hence
provide convenience to the gear shifting. The car has chassis less construction. i.e., the body has directly
mounted on the frame of the car with the help of fasteners. The car body is made up of fiberglass, we used
the approach of clay modeling in the designing of the molds and the virtual design of the car body is
designed under Catia V5. The parts of the car has been taken from the junkyard, the flushed cleaned,
greased or oiled , fitted , modified if needed, tested and then painted and finally assembled in the vehicle.
KEYWORDS
Army Vehicle, car, Fiber Glass Body, moving differential, two seater, 350cc engine car.
1. INTRODUCTION
Indian defense is currently at fourth position in the whole world above are china Russia and USA.
Being a patriotic engineer and responsible citizen, I accept my country as my privilege. We
should aspect of the every aspect of the possibility of the warzone and should prepare yourself if
needed and also act accordingly. This car is specially designed and fabricated on defense norms
and on the basis of the civil warzone conditions. Indian army has many vehicle but none of them
has best coordination with a civil area warzone as this car has. Now let us take an Example of a
Civil Warzone in our metro cities like Pune, Bangalore, Maharashtra, Delhi, Chennai, etc. the
worst condition for such environment is that the private property got destructed by the tank
chains. And our responsibly as an Indian citizen is to push the war towards its possible end. It
could only happen if we have such a vehicle which not only can easily handle on the debris. But
also provide convenience to the gunner as well without depleting the roads. The body of the car is
made Up of fiber glass hence light weight and to be less influence on the vehicle’s mileage, but
not less in strength than other body materials. The thickness of the layer of the fiber glass
chopped strand mat is about 1.3mm and the compound thickness when solidified two layers of
mat is 4mm. as the car bodied are of 3mm thickness. Still it is damp resistant and has stiffness
and strength in it. The engine is 350cc Royale Enfield, Which is 12HP engine and it is good in
carrying capacity due to its large bore and stroke length.so the result of it is the fuel efficiency of
the vehicle. The vehicle is fully stable and the authors wants to reflect this stability and strength

from the name of the vehicle. Hence named it “Stallion”. The aim of the project is to provide a
low budget Army vehicle for the civil area warzone. The main objectives of the projects are
making a moving differential, making a fiberglass body from a wireframe model through clay
modeling, making a low weight , low budget , fuel efficient two seater car, improved strength and
stability. India was never been in war in the civil Warzone, or in other words in metro cities
where destruction of property should be minimized. I aspect if this happens the problem will be
the destruction of the private property. So by using such a vehicle which is using tires instead of
chain, will save the roads as much as possible. Another is that the car has broad tires, hence
results in maximum traction as compared to jeep which has narrow tires resulting in lower
traction. To solve the problem mentioned above we have used the methodology. We have firstly
draw sketches of the vehicle and then use them as blueprints in CATIA V5. Then converts the
model into wireframe model, on the other hand we bought some required suspension parts,
transmission parts, tires, seats etc.

2. DETAILS EXPERIMENTAL
We assembled the parts according to our design requirements. As all the parts are from junkyard,
so we need to re consider these parts before assembling them, another thing which was necessary
is the testing of each part and its Repair, modification or the replacement of the part accordingly.
We have covered various experiments during the fabrication but due to boundage of ink we are
providing three major analysis which are must to be considered as they contain major design
stresses during the operation. These three analysis study are:
Fiberglass body
Flywheel
Alloy wheel
2.1. Materials and Procedures
The body is made up of fibreglass which has stiffness and hence passed our test on crash. The
crash test consists of compressive loads along with the shock loads.both of these forces combined
together to form such a cocktail which results in deformation of structure and fatigue.
The flywheel we used is of maruti 800 and is made up of cast iron. As maruti 800 is 3 cylinder
engine and our engine has single cylinder. So we turned the flywheel on lathe to our desired
mass. So that it becomes sufficiently heavy to obtain turning moment for the engine crank shaft.

The alloywheel is made up of aluminium alloy, we tested the material on lab and put the
concluded values in ANSYS software for the analysis.
2.2. Analysis
2.2.1 Fiberglass body crash test
We tested the body hood under crash analysis with the vehicle speed as 900m/s , and crash it on a
concrete wall at a distance 3m apart , the deformation found is 12.3mm and the factor of safety is
2.31. The ambient condition is 25’C.
2.2.2 Flywheel stress analysis
The specimen is tested in lab. The values found on RPM is 10000 RPM. And for the virtual
simulation the modeling is done in Catia V5 using reverse engineering. We prepared a sketch and
then by applying shaft command made a rim. After this we made some extrusions, holes in the
rim. We meshed the model in tetrahedron mesh in 12 nodes and the elements have 286524 no. of
nodes. We fixed the flywheel from its 6 holes and then apply cylindrical supports on it. The
circumference of the rim has 20N force applied on it. The maximum stress produced on the wheel
is 0.14838 MPa.
4. International Journal of Recent advances in Mechanical Engineering (IJMECH) Vol.5, No.2, May 2016
50
And the maximum deformation is 5*10^-5 mm.
2.2.3 Alloy wheel static structural analysis
The modeling is done under Catia V5 using reverse engineering. We prepared a sketch and then
applying shaft command made a rim. After this we did some cutting, extrusion and then finally
shape the wheel. We meshed the model in tetrahedron mesh with 10 nodes and the elements were
208273 and the no. of nodes are 347677. We fixed the wheel from its bolt holes and then apply
cylindrical support to it.
5. International Journal of Recent advances in Mechanical Engineering (IJMECH) Vol.5, No.2, May 2016
51
The 200KPa of pressure is applied on the inner circumference area of the rim. The max.
Equivalent stress is 11.283 MPa and has max. Deformation of 0.033487mm with FOS as 2.

3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
3.1. Fiberglass Crash Test
The body survived the test and has maximum deformation as 12.3mm in the elastic range. So due
to the stiffness of the material the body will suddenly retrace its original position on the removal
of external load. The body does not have any kind of permanent deformation in it after on during
the application of the load.
3.2. Flywheel Stress Analysis
The results found in the lab testing on 10000 RPM are more than satisfactory. The test specimen
did not only survived on the amount of rotation but also it performed normal even after the
removal of extra mass from it and still gives the max stress of 0.14838 MPa with max.
Deformation of 5*10^-5 mm.
3.3. Alloy wheel static structural analysis
Rectangular specimen was shaped from the test alloy for the testing in the lab. The wheel
specimen was cut with band saw and then tested under metallurgical lab along with the testing on
UTM (Tensile Test).
The values found are the inputs of ANSYS for static structural Analysis and hence gives the FOS
of 2.

COMPARISON WITH OTHER ARMY VEHICLES
Comparison with Jeep:
The advantage of this vehicle over Jeep is that it has large wheel base , large wheel track, broad
tires and most importantly it has four reverse and forward gears.
Pressure and Contact
There are two ways to get traction (a function of friction) on any surface: increase the contact
area or increase the pressure per square inch. Skinny tires must carry the same amount of weight
as fat tires, but must do so with far less contact with the road. This increases the force in pounds
per square inch on the tire tread, theoretically allowing the thinner tire to "cut" into the road
surface. You could compare the pressure effects of fat tires to skinny to (respectively) a baseball
bat and a samurai sword.
Dry Traction
In completely dry conditions, wider and fatter is always better for traction. A dry road and dry
tires allow every inch of rubber to grab the road with no interference, so traction
increase/decrease is almost linear with tire size. The only downside to larger tires on dry roads is
that they can increase steering effort in low-speed conditions. Traction is traction, whether it's
rolling forward or swiveling on an axis.
Wet Conditions
Generally speaking, wider tires will perform better in wet conditions than skinny tires, but it
depends on the tread pattern. Wide tires can easily trap water underneath while rolling, making
efficient water removal channels (called "sipes") a priority for design. Narrow tires can get away
with having fewer sipes because they're not as inclined to trap water underneath and because their
higher contact pressure tends to "squish" water out of the way.

Snow Safety
The long-held belief that narrow tires are better in snow and ice is generally true. One side effect
of high contact pressure is heat, which can, in many cases, squeeze any snow beneath back into
its liquid state. When combined with a sipes designed to carry that melted ice and snow away, the
end result is a tire that performs far better in winter conditions than wide summer rubber. Wide
tires tend to float over the top of ice and snow rather than digging in.
Staggering Tire Size
Another aspect to the fat vs. skinny debate involves using different sized tires on the front and
rear axles, also known as "staggering." Generally speaking, whichever axle gets the power (the
rear tires on rear-wheel-drive or front tires on front-wheel-drive) gets wider tires to help plant it.
Pro drag cars often use very skinny tires on the front wheels, but that's mainly to reduce both
weight and the tendency of the car to "oversteer" at high speed. In the real world, this "fats and
skinnies" approach will often lead to dangerously bad handling with very little increase in straight
line performance.
Comparison with Tank:
Good thing is that tanks has also the capability to move forward , reverse , sideways with its full
power.But the power of the tank is so large as compare to this vehicle that it leads to large fuel
consumption, more maintenance and initial cost as well as it left chain marks on the roads. But
this vehicle has tires instead of chain, light weight body and 12HP engine. Which need less
maintenance and provides more fuel efficiency.

CONCLUSIONS
The behavior of all above major studies was analyses under ANSYS and the major conclusions
are as Follows:
In all the cases, the design and the test specimens survived and results with safe design
for the requirement.
The failure occurs in all the virtual simulations, when the velocity, RPM and the pressure
is Four times simultaneously in the studies. (The ambient condition in all the testing is
considered to be 25’C.)
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
As a result of Safe design simulation he body , flywheel and the alloy wheel was assembled on
the project to test them in real life , real conditions under real loadings, and they worked well with
the project.
