Course Objectives:
This syllabus is composed for engineering students from varied backgrounds to
include mechanical, aeronautical, electrical, and astronautical engineering.
Automobile engineer must be familiar with this subject to know commercial
considerations, such as economics, marketing, and sales.
Students must be familiar with different operations of spark ignition engines and
compression ignition engines.
This syllabus is associated with the engine and includes belt drives, air conditioning,
and the starting and charging systems.
Students must be done analysis of both manual and automatic transmissions,
driveshaft design, and four- and all wheel-drive systems.
Course Outcomes:
This subject gives knowledge regarding analytical design of the complete motor
vehicle, and informative knowledge of Vehicle Body Engineering.
Knowledge of this subject is helpful for students in current motor vehicle design.
It is hoped that this syllabus will help to inspire students new to Automotive
Engineering to take up career paths in this field of engineering involved with vehicle
design.
