Workshop on Skill Next Program Automobile Engineering by Mr. Prabhat Kumar Jha

First day of Workshop on Skill Next Program Automobile Engineering by Mr. Prabhat Kumar Jha (Ex-DGM, Consultant, Maruti Suzuki Pvt Ltd.) organized in Seminar Hall GLBITM, Greater Noida on 21st February 2019.
The Department of Mechanical Engineering, GLBITM, Greater Noida organized the three days students workshop on Automobile Engineering delivered by Mr. Prabhat Kumar Jha and was attended by all eligible students of Mechanical Engineering Department.
The workshop started with lamp lightening and Saraswati Vandana at 10 am at Workshop hall with the welcoming note by Dr SS Chauhan, Professor of the first guest speaker Mr. Prabhat Kumar Jha (Ex AGM, Maruti Suzuki India Ltd,). Dr Chauhan emphasised on Hands on practical training to the students to acquire adequate skill to get better opportunities in core companies.
During the first session Mr. Prabhat Kumar Jha motivated and inspired the students towards the role and importance of engineers to society, personal, social, technical, emotional development of students and how to tackle the difficulties of life.
In the second part of first session, he gave a magnificent lecture on the topic “Production Management System”.
Production management is the practice of coordinating, directing and overseeing the manufacture of goods in a factory or another type of production facility. Production managers are tasked with meeting organizational production goals efficiently and safely while exceeding minimum quality standards.
Production managers work under a general manager to plan for production needs and to set production targets. In smaller facilities, most production managers oversee and direct production workers. In larger facilities, production managers generally lead a team of floor managers, logisticians, technicians and others who carry out and oversee the work taking place on the production floor. According to the Bureau of Labour Statistics Occupational Outlook Handbook, work in production management usually requires a bachelor’s degree and production experience in a related field.
Following this speech, there was a wonderful interactive session where the audience interacted with the speakers clarifying their doubts and asking interesting questions. The second session was all about the “AUTOMOBILE VEHICLE TESTING FACILITIES IN INDIA” to make the students familiar with the recent and upcoming technical areas and scope of job, research opportunities in the field of automotive engineering. He told that customer is sole origin of ideas that an engineer can harness into an invention. He stressed over promoting the outcome-based education in an institute by the faculties and management so that an overall development of a student can take place and student can become competitive and successful as per the requirement of changing market. The session was very interesting, and students also queried their pros and cons regarding the advancement in Automotive Engineering technologies like various speed control, driving control, safety control, autonomous car, modern materials, traffic handling systems, flying cars, vision control aspect of a vehicle.
The workshop ended with motivational speech of HOD of Mechanical Engineering, GLBITM, Dr. V. R. Mishra and vote of thanks of Mr. Prabhat Kumar Jha. Second day of Workshop on Skill Next Program Automobile Engineering by Mr. Yash Pal Sachar (GM, Corporate Affairs, Honda Car India Limited) & Mr. Sanjeev Kumar Gupta (AGM, D-CEQ, Honda Car India Limited) organized in Workshop Hall GLBITM, Greater Noida on 22nd February, 2019. Mr. Yash Pal Sachar & Mr. Sanjeev Kumar Gupta both brilliantly spoke on the topic “Development of Hybrid and Electric Cars”. A hybrid vehicle uses two or more distinct types of power, such as internal combustion engine to drive an electric generator that powers an electric motor e.g. in diesel-electric trains using diesel engines to drive an electric generator that powers an electric motor, and submarines that use diesels when surfaced and batteries when submerged. Other means to store energy include pressurized fluid in hydraulic hybrids.
The basic principle with hybrid vehicles is that the different motors work better at different speeds; the electric motor is more efficient at producing torque, or turning power, and the combustion engine is better for maintaining high speed (better than typical electric motor). Switch from one to the other at the proper time while speeding up yields a win-win in terms of energy efficiency, as such that translates into greater fuel efficiency. Next, there was an informative overview and impart theoretical knowledge on some of the major aspects in the working of a modern automobile by Air Commodore S S Saxena VSM (retd.) (AUTOWINGS TRAINING & CONSULTANCT CENTRE).
Following this speech, there was a wonderful interactive session where the audience interacted with the speakers clarifying their doubts and asking interesting questions. Third day of Workshop on Skill Next Program Automobile Engineering by Air Commodore S S Saxena VSM (retd) (AUTOWINGS TRAINING & CONSULTANCT CENTRE) organized in Workshop Hall GLBITM, Greater Noida on 23rd February, 2019.
Air Commodore S S Saxena VSM (retd) brilliantly spoke on the topic “On the Job” demonstration and working knowledge on identification of the components, process for understanding and rectifying likely faults encountered by a car owner. The successful programme ended around 4:40 pm with Vote of Thanks. The workshop was very informative and provided the participants with enormous knowledge on various aspects of Production Management System, Testing Facilities, Hybrid and Electric Cars, Components and Process of a automobile. They loved the event as a whole.
