Abstract: Quality of Surface is an important factor to decide the performance of a manufactured product. Surface quality affect product performance like assembly fit, aesthetic appeal that a customer might have for product. The nominal surfaces of the object are represented by perfect straight line, perfect circles, round holes, straightness and absolute perpendicularity A variety of processes are used to make the designed parts. The characteristics of surfaces includes surface texture, surface integrity which is always related with manufacturing processes for maintain quality of surfaces. For better quality surface finish the main factor is surface roughness. The lower value of roughness gives higher surface finish for the manufactured product. Now in present scenario different processes like grinding, honing, super finishing, polishing, burnishing etc are used to reduce the value of surface roughness. Burnishing is one of the processes which majorly affect the surface roughness. In conventional machining processes the tensile residual stresses are induced on the surface of material, which reduces the fatigue strength of material, this can be prevented by inducing residual compressive stresses on the surface of material. Burnishing is a cold working process in which initial asperities are compressed beyond yield strength against load. The surface of the material is progressively compressed, then plasticized as resultant stresses reach a steady maximum value and finally wiped a superfine finish. The highly finished processes find the application in aerospace and aircraft industry.

Abstract: Particulate Matter (PM) is one of the major harmful substances in diesel exhaust gas. Technologies like the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) and Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC) have been positioned at the exhaust to reduce the quantity of harmful substances released to the environment. This paper highlights the factors that affect combustion in diesel engines and the potential of the introduction of electromagnetic field in the combustion chamber on the improvement of the diesel engine efficiency and reduction in the quantity of Particulate Matter (PM) produced.

Abstract: Auto rickshaws are tiny, three-wheeled vehicles which are used extensively in many Asian countries for transport of people and goods. The vehicles are small and narrow allowing for easy maneuverability in congested Asian metropolises. In Bangladesh, auto rickshaws are commonly used as taxis. This is due to the use of an engine, typically a 2 or 4 stroke, with almost no pollution control. Usually fuels are used in auto rickshaws. But a few years ago some auto rickshaws have been imported from china which is run by battery. The numbers of battery powered auto rickshaws are increasing day by day. This research paper includes comparison study of battery operated easy bike with CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) operated auto rickshaw in terms of cost (operating cost, manufacturing cost, maintenance cost), user friendly and environmental issue.
Keywords - Cost, Maintenance, Safety and Transport, urban, CNG.
