Thank you very much jim :) The links are cool...I ll look up for more such data. I work for TVS motor Company. We make all levels of products, Scooters, Mopeds, Entry level bikes, Sports Bike and 3-wheeler too! Royal Enfield factory is kind of near to my place though. :)

Thanks Jim :) It's true that we learn 100x faster by doing. In fact, I love being surrounded by machines and it's quite a good thing that I see what I learned from books. But the problem is our company is the leading manufacturer in our country and is highly competitive! So, not all are lending...

Unluckily I am interning at a busy plant and they didnt provide me any classroom training/lecture! Right at the beginning, I was deployed to work in the shop floor. So, I am finding shortage of time to learn some basic concepts. Looking for any ebooks or learning modules on manufacturing...

I am undergoing internship in an motorcycle company (OEM) and would like to know if there are any ebooks about motorcycle parts, manufacturing processes, general manufacturing practices, Engine, vehicle assembly operations and stuff like these?

Thanks guys for that..I am now looking for any online app for testing/simulating my truss-bridge. Is there any free app with decent features?

Is it possible to have a body supported by truss linkages and isolate them from any stresses and impulses? Say, we are supporting a platform on the top of a set of rigid, pin jointed and cross-linked members. If small impulses act on the bottom on the linkages(upwards), is there any...

hmm.. Yeah. It's a good idea to make it fail proof and patient/handler-friendly.. I should work on it..

Thanks etudiant and berkeman for all your support. Now I get a good idea of what I'm supposed to start with. I should think of a cheap and reliable backboard made from a reinforced fibre/flexible fabric material with air splints as the basic reconfiguration process with some focus on damping the...

I have to think of it. I had been thinking. And I would be happy if I could get some guidance from experienced persons.

Kind of. But I don't think getting them into backboard is cozy. Also I have to think of the possibilities of worsening the injuries inside the ambulance itself during travel; I suppose you know the road conditions of most of the places in India. A little comfortable gurneys are available only in...

If you love computer, you can learn as you go.. But you cannot learn mechanical engineering/mechatronics outside the classroom. So my suggestion is that you take up mechatronics..And still you can learn more and more about computers/programming online or through certificate courses..

Thank you! Yes. Cerebral bone injuries and spinal cord injuries go worse when the victim is shifted to the stretcher soon after the casualty. I want to work on the stretcher itself so that I could get the patient a little more cozy into the stretcher and also while transportation on ramps...

Yes. I don't know much about what the westerners are up to, but here in India, most casualties(especially road accident victims) suffer very much in getting manhandled and transportation. And when I visited a few orthopaedic patients in a hospital, most of them told me that they couldn't bear...

Hello guys. I've planned to do my project on mechanising stretcher so as to minimise the injuries caused in handling casualties/traumatic patients on stretcher. My intuition was that if we could make a suspension/vibration damping mechanism along with special retractable compartments for holding...

The answer should be F/4, isn't it?
