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.
A Study on Business and Digital Marketing Practices of Textspeed Technology Private Limited (A Website-Based Observational Study)
An MBA summer project examining how Textspeed Technology Private Limited presents its business and digital marketing practices.
Purpose
To study the business activities and digital marketing practices of Textspeed Technology Private Limited through publicly available information on its website.
My role
Sole student author of the summer project report, carried out as part of the MBA (General) programme.
What I worked on
Observed and recorded the company's website content, service offerings and online presentation, then organised the observations into a structured study report.
Skills and concepts involved
Digital marketing concepts, business study methods, observational research, report writing and business communication.
