Projects

Projects by Govardhanan P

An academic mechanical engineering project and an MBA summer study on business and digital marketing practices.

Automatic Electromagnetic Braking System

A safety-oriented mechanical engineering project exploring frictionless, sensor-driven vehicle braking using electromagnetism.

Problem Statement

Conventional friction brakes suffer from wear, heat build-up and delayed reaction time in emergency scenarios, reducing vehicle safety.

Objective

Design a contactless braking mechanism that reacts automatically to obstacles, reducing stopping distance and mechanical wear.

Working Principle

An electromagnet mounted near a rotating metal disc generates eddy currents when energised, producing a retarding force that slows the disc without physical contact.

Methodology

Ultrasonic/IR sensors detect obstacles; a microcontroller energises the electromagnet through a relay driver to apply braking force proportional to proximity.

Tools Used

Electromagnet coil, mild-steel disc, Arduino microcontroller, ultrasonic sensor, relay module, DC power supply; modelled in AutoCAD and SolidWorks.

Applications

Automobiles, heavy vehicles, trains, industrial conveyors and any rotating machinery requiring wear-free emergency braking.

Results

Successful bench demonstration of automatic, contactless deceleration when an obstacle enters the sensor range.

Future Scope

Integration with ABS/ADAS, regenerative energy recovery from eddy currents, and adaptive braking based on vehicle speed and load.
