Description
Global economic development has resulted in a big way, the progress of transportation system, alternately, accelerated growth in automotive products (cycle, two-wheelers, four-wheelers and luggage carriers). The adverse effect of this in automotive sectors is higher import of fossil fuel which has an effected a decrease in rupee versus dollar. Research is required to identify the area of fossil fuel conservation through high efficient design of product with minimum losses of power generated in vehicle. Literature review indicates that 30 to 70 percentage mechanical frictional losses are observed in automotive products. Researchers have put efforts to minimize such frictional losses through various experimental and theoretical model studies in the realm of tribological parameters (friction, wear and lubrication). In fact, tribology is an interdisciplinary science of interacting surfaces under dynamic conditions. The proposed research is for some theoretical model development to reduce the mechanical frictional loss at the same time holding onto a good amount of load.
