I ndian automotive industry is growing at a rapid pace, throwing challenges before automotive engineers to design and develop eco-friendly, fuel efficient and safer mobility. The focus of Indian Government on reducing air pollution, encouraging electric mobility coupled with thrust on reducing road accidents and fatalities through smart and intelligent solutions has also driven industry to advance their R&D efforts. SIAT 2017 organized on this backdrop will be ideal platform for the researchers around the globe to put forth and deliberate their ideas to address India specific and global challenges faced by the automotive sector. The present edition of SIAT 2017 is an apt forum for harnessing ideas, technologies and applications of various fields and domains to the very purpose of achieving Smart, Safe and Sustainable mobility; which is the theme of SIAT 2017. This edition of SIAT assumes special significance, since ARAI turned 50; a month prior to this Symposium’s schedule. SIAT 2017 is going to be a memorable one, considering the grand finale of ARAI’s Golden Jubilee, coinciding this event. I am sure, SIAT 2017 being held from 18 - 21 January 2017 at ARAI, Pune, will provide perfect opportunity for engineers and technologists around the world to exchange ideas and innovations. The concurrent SIAT Expo will help delegates explore the innovative products and services showcased by global OEMs, component manufacturers and suppliers in automotive field. On the occasion of SIAT 2017, the Organizing Committee is pleased to bring out this Technical Reference Bulletin. This edition of the Bulletin, containing technical articles and advertisements, will enrich the delegates and will serve as a reference for understanding current advances in applied technology. I am thankful to all the authors for sharing their knowledge and innovations through this Technical Reference Bulletin and also thankful to the OEMs and suppliers for showcasing their products and services through advertisements. Lastly, I acknowledge the perseverance of the team that worked for bringing out this edition and hope SIAT 2017 to be a remarkable and memorable milestone for global community in the pursuit of sustainable mobility and will serve as a reference and cherished event in professional endeavors to all the delegates! ARAI welcomes all participants of SIAT 2017 and wish them a pleasant stay. Mrs. Rashmi Urdhwareshe Chairperson SIAT 2017, Advisory Committee, Technical ReDfeirreecntcoer -B AuRllAetIin 1 2 Technical Reference Bulletin T he recent technological advances in the mobility sector are throwing up new challenges for the human race. While the Automakers are busy tackling these challenges in their own way, the Government too is trying to catch up with them by trying to make automobiles manufacturing the main driver of the ‘Make in India’ initiative. It also plans to promote eco-friendly cars in the country and has also formulated a Scheme for Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of Electric and Hybrid Vehicles in India, under the National Electric Mobility Mission 2020 to encourage the progressive induction of reliable, affordable and efficient electric and hybrid vehicles in the country. With this background SIAT 2017 has come up with a theme of “Safe, Smart and Sustainable Mobility”. The Technical Reference Bulletin (TRB) being presented is collection of technical articles and case studies which deliberate on the theme of SIAT 2017. This particular issue of the Technical Reference Bulletin is all the more significant since it is being published on the eve of ARAI’s Golden Jubilee year. The articles are broadly categorised as Regulatory Trends, Automotive Safety, Simulation Techniques, Automotive Electronics, Intelligent Transport, Skill Development, Emission, Noise, Vibration & Harshness, Advanced Materials, Advanced Powertrain, Testing & Instrumentation, etc. The collection is work of individual’s in their expert domain and future potential areas of necessities. There are 35 technical articles received from experts from various fields of automotive engineering. We sincerely hope that the content of articles would yield interest among the automotive fraternity and would be helpful in their day to day activities. Our heartfelt thanks are to all the authors for sparing their valuable time to contribute to the technical articles for this bulletin. We acknowledge and appreciate all the organizations for the advertisements representing their products and services. My sincere thanks are to Chairperson, SIAT 2017 advisory committee, Director ARAI for giving me this opportunity and for her support. I also extend my thanks to A.A. Deshpande, Convenor SIAT 2017 for his cooperation. On behalf of Technical Reference Bulletin Committee, I appreciate and value the contribution put in by ARAI colleagues in bringing this TRB. I would like to thank the members of Technical Reference Bulletin Committee, who have taken great interest for the tasks involved in shaping this bulletin and express my appreciation for their earnest and conscientious activities, and sincere efforts. We would also like to thank M/s VGA Digital Printers Pvt. Ltd, Pune for their timely service and support in bringing out the TRB.
