Machine parts are subjected to various types of loads resulting in development of
stresses and strains. If, these stresses and strains are allowed to develop beyond the safe limit,
the concerned part may fail.
As a technician, it becomes very essential to understand the effects of loads on any
part. Due to manufacturing needs, there is demand to reduce the size of the parts, which again
increases the stresses on the parts. Yet we have to assure the reliability and durability of the
concerned parts is to be assured. All these factors are focussing the attention of the
technicians and engineers for need based designs by studying the effects of loads, stresses and
strains in the parts in finding necessary solutions. This subject deals with the effect of various
forces on different materials.

RATIONALE
Automobile vehicles are assembled with large number of parts, which are made from
different metallic and non-metallic materials. These parts are produced using a variety of
manufacturing processes to in build the requisite strength, surface finish, size and shape. As
an automobile technician/ engineer, one should have the knowledge of these manufacturing
processes, which will be very helpful for discharging his duties in manufacturing or
maintenance area of auto-vehicles.
RATIONALE:
Today millions of automobiles, trucks and buses operate on the streets and highways.
There are huge number of off-the-road vehicles such as tractors, power mowers, motor cycles.
Most automotive troubles can be avoided by periodic inspection and adjustment of different
parts of a vehicle . Even with reasonable periodic care however, some trouble must be
expected. Automotive maintenance and trouble shooting has a threefold purpose : to
demonstrate how to forestall most troubles, to show how to locate quickly and accurately the
source of trouble which has already developed and to describe how to restore the vehicle to
satisfactory operation once it is known what went wrong with it. This practical subject is
essential for diploma student because it provides the scope for hands-on-experience in
maintenance and trouble shooting of automobiles.
NOTE: At least 10 no. of servicing should be conducted per semester where a batch of five
students will work for each servicing.

RATIONALE
In automobiles, the chemical energy of the fuel is converted into mechanical energy in
the engine from the sliding motion of the piston to the rotary motion of crankshaft. From
crankshaft to the wheels the motion is transmitted through a series of mechanisms. Besides
this power transmission, the automobile is operated with the help of several mechanisms, like
steering, brake, clutch and Accelerator mechanisms. These mechanisms are prepared with the
help of linkages, gears, belt drives, etc. As a technician, one should have the necessary
knowledge and skills about these mechanisms for manufacturing, operation and mechanisms
of automobiles. This subject deals with different kinds of mechanisms and their applications.

METROLOGY
Rationale
Diploma engineers often come across varied types of measuring instruments in the
actual practice. Diploma engineer should be proficient in making the measurements
and follow various control processes to maintain the quality in engineering
manufacturing areas. He should be able to understand and analyze the practical
measurement systems.
The course Metrology makes the students to understand the process of measurement
required in any industry. Also the student should be able to select and use the
appropriate measuring instruments for a particular application.

Rationale:
Tyres are required to carry the load of the vehicle at desired speeds, transfer braking efforts
and withstand the thrust at varying road conditions. Thus the life of tyres are always affected
by many factors, such as driving habits, loads, speeds, tyre pressure, road conditions, wheel
alignment, vehicle condition, etc. On the other side, the prices of tyres are also a major
investment in any automobile. Short life and tyre failures affect the life of vehicle as well as
the life of passengers. Thus, as automobile person, one should have the necessary knowledge
of tyre maintenance and retreading process. The retreading process helps to utilise the tyre
carcass for longer life.
