    Carbon Fiber Impact Attenuator: A Comprehensive Design and Analysis Approach

    By Vinayak H Khatawate, Hari Vasudevan, Bhavik Kapadia, Krisha Vora, Mann Dave, Prathamesh Desai

    Abstract: In the high-stakes world of Formula One competition, accidents are a sad reality. The primary causes of these accidents are violent overtaking, high speeds, and environmental factors. All of these causes result in accidents, such as a car colliding head-on with barricades, two automobiles colliding, a car skidding on a wet track, etc. Driver safety must be improved, and accidents of this nature must be avoided. One such safety elements …

    Geometrical, Numerical and Materialistic Parameters used for Studying and Reducing Tube-Side Flow Inconsistency in Tube and Shell Heat Exchangers: An Overview

    By Kartik Ajugia, Vinayak H Khatawate, Hari Vasudevan

    Abstract: A Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger (STHE) exchanges heat between two fluids flowing at different temperatures. More than 60% of the market is occupied by STHE’s out of all the different kinds of heat exchangers. Maldistribution is the uneven fluid flow distribution in the tubes of the STHE. The aim of this study is to provide a detailed review on the various methods used by researchers for reducing the maldistribution …

    Analysis of Rear Suspension Geometry of an ATV

    By Mayank Sanjay Gupta, Yash Nitin Sharma, Hari Vasudevan, Vinayak H. Khatawate

    Abstract: This research presents the design and optimization of a rear suspension system specifically developed for an All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV), with the primary goal of enhancing ride quality, handling, and overall dynamic performance across diverse terrains. A key objective is to improve damping characteristics while minimizing unwanted changes in track width and wheelbase during suspension articulation. The study carefully examines critical suspension parameters, including camber angle, toe angle, and wheel travel, …
