Machines are on a fast paced evolutionary track that renders them indispensable to the progress of mankind. One such machine that has made great strides in the last century is the automobile. Mobility has always been my area of fascination; the working of a simple bicycle to the advanced Formula One car has always made me curious.
During my high school studies I was a student of science and mathematics, both these subjects helped me in unraveling the mysteries of nature by better understanding principles that govern its working. I have participated in several school and inter school science projects, one such project that left lasting impression was that of a study on gear mechanism used in various tools, fascinated by the same I was on self-propelled path of discovery. I am driven by asking the questions: why? and how? and this curiosity developed into a passion for machines as a whole and led me to do an undergraduate program in Mechanical Engineering from PVG’S College of Engineering and Technology under the prestigious University of Pune, a leading academic institution in the automotive hub of India, Pune.
The four year course exposed me to many fascinating subjects, my interest evolved as I explored subjects like Manufacturing Process, Theory of Machines, Metallurgy, Fluid Mechanics, Machine Design, Power Transmission System, IC engines etc. I have tried to be in tune with the latest Mechanical technologies by attending courses offered by automotive industry itself,
Since my first ever flight in 2006 I have been fascinated by Aerospace and Engineering industries. Attending the seminars and events held by the Royal Aeronautical Society has further reinforced my interest and ambitions, my desire to further my understanding in these subjects has continued to grow and my aim now is to become a Chartered Engineer. I have thoroughly enjoyed learning mechanics in Maths and Physics as it has enabled me to understand how the world works. Everything from a car accelerating to studying the airflow over a plane wing by fluid dynamics can be explained by mechanics. I would love the opportunity to gain more advanced knowledge of this.
In general the automobile was invented to transport people. Horses were the main mode of transportation and a self powered vehicle seemed to offer many benefits. We have looked at the automobile history and seen how this innovation occurred. The United States in the 19th century had been developing a very successful metal-working industry, which included firearms, sewing machines and machine tools. Not only did this push technology ahead but it also created demand products of a complex technical nature. This technology is what leads to the production of the automobile. The electric car for many years followed the same format that the internal combustion automobile went
The automobile began as a rich man’s toy, and in today’s society almost every single person owns one of these miraculous inventions. After the automobile became more popular, society has evolved around it, creating highways and fast food chains. The automobile has revised from a bare invention, such as the horseless carriage, to now technologically advanced motor vehicles with bluetooth and wireless internet. Since the beginning age of the automobile in 1885, the invention has advanced, prospered, and changed society throughout the world.
According to article, “In a high-quality program, there is a focus on developing healthy and strong human relationships (p. 40). The program takes place in Condor Elementary School. They used the cafeteria to give them a snack, and make Woven Baskets for children in Protective Services. They had plenty of space to do their project, there were many tables and benches for them to openly do their work, as well as move around. They had a 12-child/2-teacher ratio, which facilitates the supervision of the children. They provided all the material (had plenty of them). They also had board games, plenty of art supplies, and books. In addition, they were provided with outdoor physical activities.
motion. As the saying goes, “planes, trains, and automobiles” have always sparked my imagination, and from an early age, I have always wanted to work with them. Despite my lengthy medical history and learning disabilities, I have striven for the day when I get to do hands on mechanical work as a career. With the help of this scholarship, I will be one step closer to making that vision a reality, and one step closer to developing a vehicle of my own design inspired by these magnificent machines.
Several students are doing Science Fair projects at Woodstock Middle School and I am one of the seventh grade students. The topic I shall be doing is on how bridge structure affects the weight bearing capacity. I chose this specific topic to guide bridge builders in the right direction on what bridge is safest for public use. The key topics I plan to research on include the following: Beam, Warren Truss, suspension, cable-stayed, and arch bridges. I shall use the scientific method to guide me through this process.
I was more adept in the practical’s and hence used to spend more time in the laboratories. That childhood habit of going with father to his factory turned into a passion by now which led me to do an internship from National Aluminium Company Limited (NALCO). There I had a close look at the application of mechanics and its related theories. It was a proper place for me to start my professional career as I got to learn a bit about corporate world too. Simultaneously, with the increasing role of computers in every field of engineering, I underwent career enhancing certificate courses like Computer Aided Design and 3DMax which helped me to learn various design aspects. These courses opened up a realm of possibilities, such as in the field of finite element analysis which I could never before have imagined. One aspect of these course was that I was required to analyse complex structure under various stages of loading and find their resonant frequencies using my own computer codes. Due to my interest in thermal and fluid sciences, Heat and Mass transfer, I submitted a project in my final year which was “Heat treatment of TMT
Things have changes significantly since the early days of the automobile. What was once relative simple machinery (seen from today's point of view), it has developed to become a very complex system that makes a car what it is.
For over one hundred years, people have been driving automobiles nearly everywhere they go. From the grocery store, to work, to school, cars are used as transportation all around the world. However, many people have been asking themselves the same pressing question: Is the modern-day car still beneficial, or does it hurt us more than help us? The answer is clear. Today’s automobile is no longer worth the cost to our bills, the risk to our lives, or the damage to our environment.
Have you ever seen a car A car is a vehicle moving on wheels made to run on streets for transporting passengers. Its something that we see and use daily, is so essential that it has become part of our lives. The cars you see nowadays are really modern comparing the first car made 100 years agom and as you know, the design were different. It will be show how the cars have changed through the years. Henry Ford, the founder of Ford Motor Company, did the idea of assembly line production to the process that a low-priced and dependable vehicle became more available. In 1896, he made his first vehicle with a motor Quadricycle and realized his first dynamic
Gone are the days of graduating from your high school auto shop class and grabbing a job fixing cars capable of supporting a family. Mechanics must embrace the same theories taught decades ago while at the same time embracing the technology that is already in the pipeline. With the vast amount of knowledge required it's now recommended that new technicians specialize.

Nowadays ,people can’t oppose the boosting of the countless pests and insects that disturb our daily habits. Controlling of insects and pests is one of the main problems of most farmers and gardeners. So, instead of buying commercial and expensive inorganic insecticides, an alternative and economical insect repellant made up of the sap of euphorbia plant, garlic, and siling labuyo, all natural insecticides derived from different plants which could kill insects and pests. The garlic (alluim sactium) that used for both ordinary and medicinal purposes and even as natural flavoring, could also be a benefit to make an insecticide. The property of garlic that is considered as an effective chemical that can kill
