The interesting engineering behind the SHAPE of Train wheels!
The train’s wheels are not perfectly cylindrical, but slightly conical. In our opinion, this conical shape is a marvel of engineering that accomplished two major things, one - correcting the course of the train towards the center, and two - helping the train to achieve the differential action. To understand the first accomplishment, let’s consider a simple experiment with glued paper cups.

Airbags: How do they work?
This would happen in a high-speed accident if there was no airbag, even if the driver fastened their seatbelt.
It's a big engineering challenge to bring the human body to rest from a high speed in a time duration of 100 milliseconds without causing much harm to the body. Let’s learn about this life-saving technology by understanding the mechanism of airbag inflation, which interestingly happens thanks to a chemical explosion. ...

The MAGIC behind Da Vinci’s Self Supporting Bridge!
You give a collection of wood logs to the multi-talented genius Leonardo da Vinci, and in a few minutes, he will assemble a bridge from them. No permanent joints, and surprisingly, the more weight on the bridge, the stronger it becomes. Da Vinci designed this self-supporting bridge for troop movement.
Let’s arrange a few wood pieces as shown. It’s clear that the pieces...

Gearings , Gear trains, Reduction Drive, and Gearmotors
A gear train is a succession of gear wheels meshed together in such a way that the rotation of one causes the rotation of the others. The transmission of kinetic energy from an engine of any type to a user element is based on this simple mechanism, which is therefore utilised in several machineries.
In this video, we are firstly going to point out the principles of gear trains....
