This paper presents an investigation report of different components failure which affect the performance of an automobile engine. The premature breakage of a four cylinder diesel engine block, crankshaft, camshaft, crankshaft bearing, camshaft bush, engine oil pump was reported. It is found that the failure of each component having the same reason for its failure as reported from different plac...

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to assess the risk Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene, and Xylenes in the paint plants of two automotive industries in Iran by using the COSHH guideline and by measuring the ambient concentration of these chemicals. Method: This cross sectional study was conducted in two phases, in phase one the BTEX ambient concentration was measured in three unites of pai...

In the automotive industry damping has become an important and highly effective design parameter for reducing low-frequency vibroacoustic noise in the vehicle compartment. It is a fairly straightforward procedure to compute vibroacoustic frequency responses of a damped car body for a given excitation and to compare the resulting response levels to a prescribed specification over a frequency ran...

Modern real-time systems have become exceedingly complex. A typical car is controlled by over 100 million lines of code executing on close to 100 Electronic Control Units (ECU). With more and more functions being implemented in software, the traditional approach of implementing each function (such as engine control, ABS, windows control) on a dedicated ECU is no longer viable, due to increased ...

Complex automotive systems are composed of subsystems and components in a deep hierarchy, often designed by different development partners or reused from preexisting projects. It is therefore a challenging task to break down requirements into sub-requirements fitting the scope of the subsystems and to simultaneously demonstrate that the integrated system fulfills both functional and safety requ...

The high availability and safety requirements for automotive electronics are currently almost exclusively addressed by application-specific engineering solutions to fault tolerance rather than by systematic approaches. Currently, syst e m i c approaches are ruled out because of cost. The reason for this is that a systemic approach to fault tolerance requires ( I ) replication of components and ...

This paper describes the needs of the aviation and automotive markets for structural materials and presents examples of developments of aluminum alloy products to fill these needs. Designers of aircraft desire materials which will allow them to design lightweight, cost-effective structures which have the performance characteristics of durability and damage tolerance. Their needs are being met b...

supply chain management has been considered by many researchers in order to coordinate the chain members in this new age so that it is considered as a strategic approach for demands, operations, procurements and managing logistical processes. the present study deals with survey of supply components in supply chain management and their effect on organization performance. the research conceptual ...
