Academic Projects
Title Automatic Optimization of Suspension Parameters – Jaguar XF Description
The project aimed to fully define optimum spring and damper rates in a vehicle suspension for stable handling and optimum ride quality from a handling model. The objectives included reviewing existing ride model and to draw out conclusions as to viability and usefulness of automatic vehicle behaviour optimization. The quarter model setup was used for a more accurate solution. The model used for this purpose was that of a Jaguar XF model. MATLAB was the software that is used for this optimisation technique
Title Design of a Human Power Transportation system Description The project aimed to resolve the problem of inadequate transportation facilities within the campus. An effective human power based transportation system was Course University / Board Institution Year of
