''Making stuff… Simpler''
Here we bring yet another project for mechanical engineers – Design and Fabrication of solenoid engine.
In simple words, a solenoid engine is a type of engine in which the pistons move back & forth on the principle of electro-magnetism, passing electricity through a coil(solenoid).

Self-driving cars and vehicles have been on the horizon for many years. Ever since the first sci-fi movies were introduced, people have dreamed of various inventions making it to the real world. Hover cars are still a dream, though it feels like they’re unlikely to ever find a place in our society. On the other hand, the concept of cars that drive themselves is very much a reality. Scientists and researchers are working around the clock to bring this innovative technology to the consumer market. In fact, we can see many instances of self-driving cars in action right now. Granted, a completely autonomous vehicle doesn’t exist, but there are plenty of cars that do include some aspects of self-driving.

Automatic this, automatic that.. this is the era of automatic! Everyone wants everything automatic. Why? Because we are lazy! And if “Need is the mother of inventions”, then “Laziness is the father of inventions!” Coming to our topic, Automatic transmissions. Yes, who doesn’t want it? Because they are smoother, faster & super-easy.
So today we will be learning how automatic transmissions work and everything else you need to know about them!
Very few are lucky enough to take a ride in a Chopper & I am happy to be one of them! Anyway, helicopters are indeed one of the most interesting machines from which I know so far. Subjects like flight mechanics & helicopter dynamics are not for weak hearted ones; they are seriously challenging to study! Well keeping those complex calculations, equations & relations aside, lets at least know how helicopters work, fly & are steered !

In my previous article, we learned about Single plate clutches, their working and applications.
Multi plate clutches are the most widely used amongst all the other clutches. And so today we will learn how multi plate clutch work, their advantages, disadvantages and their applications.
No more boring introductions today; I’ll just give you an idea about clutches & then directly straight to the topic – Types of clutches !
Just for them who don’t have much of an idea, Clutch is an engaging & disengaging mechanical device which helps in transmitting torque/power produced by the engine.
They are used in every goddamn car, bike, trucks, locomotive engines & innumerous other vehicles & machines !
In one of my previous articles, we learned what are gearboxes, their main parts, why do we need them and their working in detail. So today, you will be learning what are the types of gearbox and what are the differences between them and in which vehicles they are used.
