https://engineeringjournals.stmjournals.in/index.php/JoAEA/article/view/7706
<div class="WordSection1"><p>Hand brakes are one of the most important safety systems in a motor vehicle. When parked, the hand brake mechanism's primary function is to maintain the car's secure motionlessness. The primary purposes of the brake system are to slow down the car, maintain speed when driving downhill, and, in the end, park the car in a stationary position on a level or sloping road. Human intervention is involved in the conventional hand brake actuation process. The hand brake will not function if the lever is not pulled or pushed. Also, humans frequently forget to apply the hand brakes, either out of carelessness or in an emergency. This could cause the car to roll on slopes and collide with other cars in the parking lot. The automatic handbrake is a crucial component of modern cars, as safety is the primary concern. Our project is to develop a model for the automatic handbrake system which engages and disengages handbrake in automobile and to make it affordable to common man. The model is planned to develop as an external attachment that could be fixed with the existing hand brake mechanisms in automobiles. With the aid of mechanical actuators or sensors, the external attachment will correspond with the hand brake's typical operation.In our automated field, modern cars might have electronic park brake systems, which are more user-friendly and practical than manual parking brake systems. However, our model's goal is to automate vehicles with traditional manual park brake systems by repairing an external component without changing the manual park brake's standard design or functionality using electrical component.</p></div>Manikandan HBimalrag P

https://engineeringjournals.stmjournals.in/index.php/JoAEA/article/view/7606
This paper studies and analyzes a hybrid system consisting of a fuel cell unit and flexible photovoltaic panels to power electric vehicles. Hydrogen in a storage tank powers the fuel cell; the tank recharges by an onboard electrolyzer connected to the photovoltaic panels. Fuel cell unit operates in a closed loop to enhance efficiency and to avoid water waste and oxygen pollution with ambient gasses. A distilled water tank, connected to the electrolyzer, assures the refilling in case of water leakage. The hydrogen storage tank has a connection for an external recharging system if necessary. PV panels also supply energy to the vehicle's ancillary equipment. The proposed system applies to short-distance urban routes where we can recharge the hydrogen tank during long stops of working time, a common situation in large cities.Carlos Armenta-Deu

https://engineeringjournals.stmjournals.in/index.php/JoAEA/article/view/7687
<p>The purpose of this research paper is to evaluate the performance of five selected automobile companies by comparing their Value Added. The Value Added of the selected automobile companies from 2011-12 to 2020-21 is calculated based on the audited annual reports. The investigation aims to shed light on the relative competitiveness and performance of the selected companies in the Indian automotive sector by comparing key performance indicators like revenue, profitability, productivity, and efficiency. For investors, stakeholders, legislators, and industry analysts who are interested in learning more about the dynamics of the Indian auto industry, the study's conclusions can provide insightful information. The selected companies are ranked by comparing the average Gross Value Added and average Net Value Added during the study period. The difference between the Value Added of the selected companies is significant or not is tested by ANOVA. Apart from contrasting the Value Added metrics, the study will explore the variables impacting these businesses' performance, including market circumstances, technological developments, the legal framework, and tactical choices. Moreover, the research will investigate the consequences of these discoveries for diverse stakeholders, such as investors searching for prospects in the Indian automotive domain, policymakers attempting to devise policies that promote industry growth, and industry analysts keeping an eye on patterns and advancements.</p>Mukesh D.

https://engineeringjournals.stmjournals.in/index.php/JoAEA/article/view/7686
<p>This research paper frame by researcher to know the promotional activity of car markets and further impact on buyers in Gujarat state we all know that Gujarat’s state of festivals in Gujarat were people make purchase most of the festival period and also month of august consumer more purchase on <strong><em>HOLI, CRISMATS, DIWALI DASSERA</em></strong><em> </em>etc. and also major purchase on special day like birthday, <strong><em>AKADASHI,VASANTPANCHAMI</em></strong> etc. utilizing a combination of qualitative and quantities analysis, this study mixed methods approach to investigate the various aspect of promotional activity and how they affect consumer behavior so this paper refer how promotional activity make impact on buyers on car market. Gujarat's economy greatly benefits from the automobile sector, therefore expanding the market requires an understanding of consumer behavior and the effects of promotional efforts. This research investigates the various promotional methods used by automobile firms and their impact on customer decision-making processes through an extensive examination of literature and empirical analysis. Furthermore, the research delves into elements like consumer behavior patterns, pricing tactics, and brand perception that influence the Gujarat automobile industry.</p>Solanki Priyanka M

https://engineeringjournals.stmjournals.in/index.php/JoAEA/article/view/7585
<p><span lang="EN-IN">This research article deals with the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) based design of the brake master cylinder of different materials. The brake master cylinder is considered as the most significant component in almost all passenger cars equipped with a hydraulic braking system. The brake master cylinder came under the control and safety category components and is popularly considered to be the heart of the braking system. It must be designed precisely, and utmost care should be undertaken to endure any possible loading (Pressure) while braking. The brake master cylinder is designed based on the total braking force required or per brake biasing ratio which is defined as the ratio of front and rear braking torque needed to stop the vehicle at different braking conditions. To get the required braking torque, a proper selection of parameters such as brake master cylinder bore diameter, brake disc (rotor) diameter, and calliper piston diameter is essential. Nowadays, there is more focus on reducing the overall weight of vehicles to improve the vehicle performance and reduce the fuel consumption. To achieve this, there is a need to focus on reducing the weight of different components present in the vehicles. An</span><span lang="EN-IN"> attempt has been made in this research with an importance on the brake master cylinder by using different alternate materials without compromising the strength and other important properties to make lightweight components. The static structural finite element analysis (FEA) and fatigue analysis of the brake master cylinder has been carried out under actual loading and appropriate boundary conditions numerically and, results have been compared with experimentally. The solid modelling of the brake master cylinder has been carried out using the commercially available software CATIA V5, and FE analysis for static structural and fatigue analysis has been done using ANSYS Workbench 16.0. Subsequently, the fatigue results have been compared well with the experimental results. It has been shown that the use of Aluminium Metal Matrix Composites (AMMCs) instead of Aluminium alloy in the manufacturing of brake master cylinders significantly increased the strength with reduced weight, thus giving improvements in wear and corrosion resistance.</span></p>S K PanigrahiAkshay N.

<h2>The creation and use of an intelligent battery management system and a bidirectional power converter for electric vehicles that can charge their batteries. In the present endeavor, we are using a selection switch to enable the v2g operation made in the place where the EV is parked. This battery charger allows receive energy from the power grid (g2v) and deliver back via the power grid part of the stored battery (v2g). The proposed system is to design a bidirectional power converter, regenerative power supply, and competent the battery management system. This bidirectional EV charger uses an autonomous smart battery management system to facilitate power transmission across devices in both g2v and v2g modes..
