Vehicle Dynamics and Performance Analysis

Delve into the science of vehicle dynamics with this immersive XR simulation. Students can explore vehicle stability, handling, and ride comfort in various scenarios, analyzing how factors like acceleration, braking, and cornering affect overall vehicle performance. Using virtual simulations, students can test different vehicle configurations, suspension systems, tire mechanics, and aerodynamics to optimize design for real-world conditions.

Threading Operations (Internal and External)

Train students to perform threading operations on both internal and external surfaces using lathe machines or hand-operated threading dies. Through XR simulations, students will practice cutting precise threads on bolts, shafts, and pipes, adjusting thread pitches, speeds, and maintaining proper tool alignment. The simulation provides hands-on experience with critical threading techniques, allowing students to gain proficiency in achieving accurate thread depths, uniformity, and fit for various applications.

Machining Tolerances and Fits

Explore XR-based simulations for machining parts to meet specified tolerances and selecting appropriate fits for mating components. Students will interact with virtual machining scenarios, adjusting parameters to achieve precise tolerances, whether it's clearance, interference, or transition fits. This experience provides a deeper understanding of machining precision, helping to avoid the production of undersized or oversized parts. Real-time feedback ensures that users can evaluate part quality, tolerance control, and fit accuracy for optimal machining results.

Airflow and Duct Design Simulation

The Airflow and Duct Design Simulation trains students in calculating airflow requirements and designing ducts to ensure HVAC systems operate efficiently. The simulation features virtual tools for calculating airflow based on building dimensions and heating/cooling loads. Students engage in interactive duct design exercises, where they size ducts, select materials, and place vents for optimal airflow. Real-time feedback is provided on pressure loss, air distribution efficiency, and adherence to industry standards.
