The main objective of the book is to explore the design of Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) for surveillance and light weight transportation. An Unmanned ground Vehicle (UGV) is any piece of mechanized equipment that moves across the surface of the ground and serves as a means of transporting, but explicitly does not carry a human being. In this book the design of the chassis with 5mm thick plate and it is fastened to the rigid frame work through nut and bolts is explored. In order to reduce the weight of the vehicle the chassis and framework is made out of aluminium alloys. The vehicle is...

The present study, the effect of dry sliding wear behaviour of aluminium composites has been investigated. Aluminium matrix reinforced with SiC and MoS2 in this project. Aluminium alloy series Al6061 is used as matrix, Silicon Carbide particles (SiC) and Molybdenum disulphide particles (MoS2) are used as reinforcements. The composite materials to be fabricated by using stir casting method to select the material combination for minimize the wear. In the Al6061 matrix, the reinforcements SiC and MoS2 were varied from 3% to 5% by weights in three steps. Metal matrix composites primarily on...
