Automotive design

Name: Instructor: Course: Date: Automotive Design. Automotive research has developed over the years into a mainstream department in the vehicle manufacturing industry. It has been among the primary focus in generating the demand required to boost the sales of the vehicle. General Motors is a vehicle manufacturing company which was fading out before the introduction of the designing department. This department led to the introduction of the Chevrolet which transformed the company’s fortunes into profits. The Chevrolet became a big success especially in the post war era which boosted the growth of a company that was failing a few years back. This turn in profits and investment in design proved to be the right step by the company in manipulating the automobile industry for the next few years. This shows the power in taking the risk of automotive design. Automotive design is the engineering process that takes place in manufacturing automobiles specifically the design appearance of a vehicle. Automobiles are known to attract more customers through use…

things involving race cars. I think that being a mechanic changes you. It is interesting to know how to fix a piece that is broken. The job duties and task for automotive mechanic in my case race cars are to examine vehicles to determine extent of…

a specific branch of engineering that deals with mechanisms. Michigan Technological University defines it as the application of the principles and problem-solving techniques of engineering from design to manufacturing to the marketplace for any object. The principles that mechanical engineers use are those of mathematics and physics. They apply these and the…

The method has obvious profits when a component is required in large amounts. However, for components such as those required for “aeronautic space”, “defence” and “automotive applications”, mechanical properties and robustness are of primary importance. It is therefore important that the best features of design should be employed and optimum casting technique with minimum cost can be used. Pressure die cast products are used in the form of components of various electrical, electronic,…

In the last thirty years, end-of-life disassembly has been taking shape and evolving the way we design, produce, and discard products. End-of-life disassembly involves obtaining a product that has already served its purpose to the consumer and disassembling the product to recycle or reuse its components in the manufacturing process. The processes and ways that disassembly has been carried out over the years have varied drastically. This is because the sector is always changing to find the…

Instead of waiting until the next meeting, which would probably be when we tested the anemometer, I began working on another prototype design. I sent a photo of it to my other teammates so that they would know that we had another design to think about. Had we had more time I would have discussed this design with my teammates and had them help me create the prototype. Our third and final meeting was in the testing room. It was here where we tested out our different designs, landing on the one…

The Classroom Reimagined-Design Matters! In today’s classroom, the educational population is increasingly becoming more diverse, and with the increase in change and diversity comes new needs and challenges. One of the challenges is having a classroom that is flexible enough to adapt with this current trend, all while enhancing the learning experience for students equally. In recent years, there has been an increase in the use of technology and in diversity among students, and this can challenge…

In response to Louis Kahn’s writings, words that measure fall short of fully grasping the visionary and profound qualities they possess. Kahn’s poetry allows the reader to begin to understand his theories and the major elements that he held essential in the study of architecture. Some architects may think that the goal of being an architect is to merely deliver good design, but this is shown to be just a factor through the lenses of Kahn’s writings. Louis Kahn reveals that architecture is not…

Understanding the Innovation Gap “How Leaders Can Close the Innovation Gap” is an article by Claude Legrand and David S. Weiss published in the Ivey Business Journal, which claims to offer “concise commentaries” and “productivity-enhancing management advice” (Ivey Business Journal). However, the article does not echo the professionalism expected from any business journal, and would more aptly be seen as a passable entry on a blogging website. While four “enablers” for innovation are suggested,…

Even before school, Lorenson knew he wanted to work with metal, which is why his art pieces are made of various metals. When left Chi-town, at his own expense, to become a teacher at the university, he could not bring his art with him. With having most of the sculptures made of metal and they are not easy to move. He wanted to remain active with his work so instead Lorenson decided to keep his home and studio in Chicago and fly back and forth from Illinois to Massachusetts. When Lorenson creates…
