...[pic] CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION The automobile industry is one of the largest industries in India as in many other countries. It plays a major role in the growth of economy in India. The automobile industry in India is the ninth largest in the world with an annual production of over 2.3 million units in 2008. The industry comprises automobiles and auto component sectors, which encompass passenger cars, two-wheelers, three-wheelers, tractors, commercial vehicles, multi- utility vehicles and components. Today, the Indian automobile industry is the world s largest motorcycle manufacturer, the second largest two-wheeler and tractor manufacturer, the fifth largest commercial vehicle manufacturer and the fourth largest car maker in Asia. Apart from serving the domestic market, the Indian auto sector has also become a sourcing hub for the global auto giants. In 2009, India emerged as Asia's fourth largest exporter of automobiles, behind Japan, South Korea and Thailand. The Government of India has introduced an ambitious project of setting up world-class automotive testing and R&D infrastructure to place India in the USD 6 trillion global automotive business. This book details the current status and factors influencing the growth of the Indian automobile industry; its future prospects and the success stories of some automobile giants in India.

...Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION Background of the study Living in this modern society, technology is very much involved. Every person is recognized with the device or gadget, he carries; that is the result of a technologically inclined society. Eventually, living without technology is like a soldier without gun; that is how people are so much dependent with technology today. Nowadays, some customers such as hospitals, manufacturing, industries, commercial establishments, schools, buildings and homes are dependent on electrical devices and equipment. These devices are controlled by modern technology for their operations, controls and processes. This includes remote sensing, SCADA, HMI, micro controller sensors and PLC. They are used for automatic control of lights and switches, and for remotely controlled operation of equipment or machine. These modern technologies save time, costs, and labor. The researcher conceptualized this study about the modern technology using HMI in the school specifically the laboratory room. Laboratory should be conducive to learning so that students are encouraged to study. It is a room where the students have the basic knowledge in theoretical aspects before they ought to gain knowledge outside. So, the study is focus on the development of a modernized laboratory equipped with automatic controls. Before laboratory is just a room with equipment, many lights, and switches. They are using manual switching of the facilities inside a laboratory room which is done...

...Hyperloop Alpha Intro The first several pages will attempt to describe the design in everyday language, keeping numbers to a minimum and avoiding formulas and jargon. I apologize in advance for my loose use of language and imperfect analogies. The second section is for those with a technical background. There are no doubt errors of various kinds and superior optimizations for elements of the system. Feedback would be most welcome – please send to hyperloop@spacex.com or hyperloop@teslamotors.com. I would like to thank my excellent compadres at both companies for their help in putting this together. Background When the California “high speed” rail was approved, I was quite disappointed, as I know many others were too. How could it be that the home of Silicon Valley and JPL – doing incredible things like indexing all the world’s knowledge and putting rovers on Mars – would build a bullet train that is both one of the most expensive per mile and one of the slowest in the world? Note, I am hedging my statement slightly by saying “one of”. The head of the California high speed rail project called me to complain that it wasn’t the very slowest bullet train nor the very most expensive per mile. The underlying motive for a statewide mass transit system is a good one. It would be great to have an alternative to flying or driving, but obviously only if it is actually better than flying or driving. The train in question would be both slower, more expensive to...
