Due to the fact that paintwork in the automobile repair industry requires individual correspondence, work by human hands is indispensable. Although the skills of expert engineers have a great influence on the finish, learning these skills require a lot of experience and time. In Japan, the number of young people in the automobile mechanic and automobile repair industry is drastically decreasing...

An integrated approach of life-cycle assessment and systems dynamics is applied to analyze the current and inter-temporal effects of automobile recycling and to propose strategic policies for this issue. Life-cycle assessment is employed to identify the current automobile recycling problem, which results from the interactions among environmental concerns, regulatory mandates, technological inno...

automobile light weight structural composites are subjected to the various loadings in their service lives. honeycombs are increasingly used as core structures in automobile light weight structures as energy absorbers. in this paper the energy absorption of honeycomb panels under impact of cylindrical projectile is numerically and experimentally studied. the effect of the core materials and cro...

With the development of auto detection technology, applications of computer control system in automobile comprehensive performance test has developed into a new stage. Also the paper elaborates automobile comprehensive performance testing automatic control system's designing mentality, system composition, test process, and the characteristics of the system and function.

Prediction of economic variables is a basic component not only for economic models, but also for many business decisions. But it is difficult to produce accurate predictions in times of economic crises, which cause nonlinear effects in the data. Such evidence appeared in the German automobile industry as a consequence of the financial crisis in 2008/09, which influenced exchange rates and a...

Over the past five years, there has been considerable growth and established value in the practice of modeling automotive software requirements.
