		<description><![CDATA[Although two stroke engines have long since been updated with four stroke racing bike engines, two stroke engines provide a lightweight and suitable solution for racing bikes, motocross and dirt bikes.
Earlier on, the two stroke engines in racing bikes were quite popular, but they have since then have been replaced with the four stroke version of the engine.
The two stroke engine was a much simpler design, therefore provided a low cost solution for racing teams...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The use of composite materials for the manufacturing of racing cars was a significant milestone of achievement in the automotive industry, as the earliest racing cars were made mostly with a single aluminum chassis, which was prone to major fractures. In the late 1980s, the use of advanced composite material in the racing industry caused a revolution of sorts in the world of automobile engineering. Such composites provided an apt solution for racing car chassis, as these were not only lightweight, but also sturdy and robust, offering the driver much more security, if the car were to crash...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The working of an automobile engine follows the same principle as an internal combustion engine. Air, from outside, enters the engine through the air cleaner and reaches the throttle plate.
The pedal in your car is the control for the amount of air that you would want to be taken in, and you control it by pressing on this gas pedal.
The air is then distributed through the intake manifold of the cylinders.
At some point fuel is injected into the air stream, and the mixture vaporizes and is drawn into the cylinders as they start their intake stroke.
This way, when the cylinder has reached its bottom, it has drawn in sufficient mixture. As it moves up, compressing the mixture, the spark plug ignites the mixture, and as the powerful gas formed expands, it pushes the cylinder to the bottom with the cylinder once again drawing in the mixture...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[To make a career in automotive engineering, there are several engineering technology programs that are offered as various academic courses helping you to specialize in designing vehicles, such as, cars, trucks, etc.
You gather the expertise in providing help to build and test the vehicles, and learn how to repair and maintain with the appropriate tools and instruments. When you watch TV, you come across commercials advertising cars and other vehicles.
If you ponder for once how much it costs the vehicle manufacturers to advertise, you would be able to realise how vast the automobile industry is. If you watch the commercials closely, you will find that features of the vehicle are advertised also, such as, side air-bags, disappearing fold down seats, gas-electric hybrids, and many more...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The products manufactured by the automotive industry are the passenger cars, trucks, vans, sport concerned vehicles, busses, and recreational vehicles.
The industry is one of the largest industry in the US and employees over 2 million people.
Automotive industries are mostly concentrated in the Great Lakes area, especially in Michigan, but it can be found in most of the other parts of the country as well.
Employment opportunities in the industry offers tens and thousands of job to the higher skilled personnel, such as, highly educated scientists, engineers, managers, and other professionals. It also has large openings for thousands of skilled workers, who largely work in the production line, and unskilled laborers...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Automotive engineering has brought in advanced concepts in today's auto industries. Cars are now installed with 8- to 16- to 32-bit processors, with thoughts of introducing the state-of-art processor technology in the very near future.
The proven technology of dual core processors, bring in speed and faster computing power, with a lower clock speed, hence consuming less power. This would mean less heat generation. In modern information technology systems, dual core processors have already created a mark, with thoughts going on for multi-core processors to be soon introduced in the market...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Automotive engineering has brought forth the ability in today's cars to reach a balance between the riding comfort and its road handling capability. This has been achieved through an active suspension control installed in the car, through a typical distributed control system. We discuss here a brief account of the mechanism of an active suspension system in a vehicle, where the distributed structure of the mechanism has been taken into account.
Automotive engineering has helped to conceive the theory of embedded distributed control architectures that have come to be the first and foremost innovation in modern cars, which have been applied to achieve improvements in performance in the vehicles. The system costs more than a quarter of the cost that is required to manufacture a car, which has made the car manufacturers to have a re-look at the costing and make improvement of the effective cost of the vehicle...]]></description>
