PREFACE
Automobile or Automotive Engineering has gained recognition and
importance ever since motor vehicles capable for transporting passengers has
been in vogue. Now due to the rapid growth of auto component
manufacturers and automobile industries, there is a great demand for
Automobile Engineers. Automobile Engineering alias Automotive
Engineering or Vehicle Engineering is one of the most challenging careers in
the field of engineering with a wide scope.
This branch deals with the designing, developing, manufacturing, testing and
repairing and servicing automobiles such as cars, trucks, motorcycles,
scooters etc & the related sub Engineering systems. For the perfect blend of
manufacturing and designing automobiles, Automobile Engineering uses the
features of different elements of Engineering such as mechanical, electrical,
electronic, software and safety engineering.
To become a proficient automobile engineer, specialized training is essential
and it is a profession, which requires a lot of hard work, dedication,
determination and commitment.
The major task of an Automobile Engineer is the designing, developing,
manufacturing and testing of vehicles from the concept stage to the
production stage
The automotive industry is one of the largest and most important industries in
the world. Cars, buses, and other engine-based vehicles abound in every
country on the planet, and it is continually evolving, with electric cars,
hybrids, self-driving vehicles, and so on. Technologies that were once
thought to be decades away are now on our roads right now. Engineers,
technicians, and managers are constantly needed in the industry, and, often,
they come from other areas of engineering, such as electrical engineering,
process engineering, or chemical engineering. Introductory books like this
one are very useful for engineers who are new to the industry and need a
tutorial.
Also valuable as a textbook for students, this introductory volume not only
covers the basics of automotive engineering, but also the latest trends, such as
self-driving vehicles, hybrids, and electric cars. Not only useful as an
introduction to the science or a textbook, it can also serve as a valuable
reference for technicians and engineers alike. The volume also goes into
other subjects, such as maintenance and performance. Data has always been
used in every company irrespective of its domain to improve the operational
efficiency and performance of engines. This work deals with details of
various automotive systems with focus on designing various components of
these system to suit the working conditions on roads.
Whether a textbook for the student, an introduction to the industry for the
newly hired engineer, or a reference for the technician or veteran engineer,
this volume is the perfect introduction to the science of automotive
engineering.
