DESCRIPTION
|
The inclination towards two wheelers is not newer to the world. From the very beginning, two wheelers are recognized as a mark of triumph, independence and joy. These are considered fast, safe and easy mode of transportation with worthy fuel economy. With the arrival of automation and electronics in two wheelers, the study gained more momentum, which led Two and Three Wheeler Technology to emerge as a new discipline of automobile engineering. The book explains traditional and modern technologies in an easy to understand manner. Various technologies have been explicated with appropriate 2D and 3D diagrams to support learning. Text comprises the state-of-the-art developments in the field of two wheelers. Detailed explanation on the actual assemblies helps the students to cognize the technology systematically. Although the emphasis has been given to the two wheeler technology, considering the requirement of various syllabi, the last chapter is solely dedicated to three wheeler technology.
Chapter-end review questions help students in preparing them for examination by self-assessment method.
Primarily designed for the undergraduate and diploma students of automobile engineering, the lucid and simple presentation of the book makes it useful for the commoner, who has keen interest in this area. It is a useful guide for a vehicle owner for understanding mechanism and parts, which may help him in maintaining his vehicle at best efficiency.
