The primary objective of this book is to make it available to students, researchers, and those who are working on case study projects. The current study focuses on optimising the topology of a simply supported beam to achieve a balance of lightweight and NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness) behaviour. In this research, topology optimization was implemented on a simply supported beam to balance lightweight and NVH behavior. The topology optimized 3D model was filled by different kinds of lattice structures. Lattice structure optimization is one type of topology optimization, and it is the...

The primary purpose of writing this book is to make available to the students, researchers and is prepared for case study projects. The current research deals with the reduction of wear and friction of automotive engine and gear components, and improving the performance of the IC engine by dispersing with multi-wall carbon nanotubes addition as additives in lubricating oil and gear oil.The performance test conducted on SI and CI engines with MWCNTs dispersed in lubricants shows an improvement in specific fuel consumption, brake thermal efficiency and mechanical efficiency at all loads and...
