Abstract

The title of this project is “Aerodynamic Study of Double Decker Bus for Driving Stability”. As portrayed by the title the objective of this project is to evaluate the influence of aerodynamic forces on a double decker bus. The project is also done to ascertain the limits of the forces for driving stability. These objectives are meant to solve the problems faced by the increasing number of cases of overturned buses on the road. Besides that every vehicle has their own limitations on different terrains. This is affected by many things like the shape, weight, and height. Though there are many studies on the ability of the passenger car, not many researches are done on the commercial vehicle.
This study covers the experimentation and also simulation. The experiments are done in the windtunnel laboratory and the simulation is done using the Adams Software. The experiment is done for data collection and interpretation for the project and the simulation is done to validate the findings of the experiment. Through these activities the final result would be the achievement of the objective of the project.
