Design modification and prototyping of new slurry tankers. The aim of the modernisation was to reduce the weight of the vehicle thanks to the use of a smaller thickness of metal sheets in the plating construction and lowering the centre of gravity by recessing the wheel arches into the contour of the tank.

The first stage of work included numerical calculations of models supplied by the client to ensure the strength and operational safety, including vehicle stability. The second stage of work included field tests of the prototypes using strain gauge measurements. The field tests positively verified the structural and multibody calculations carried out previously.
The prototypes were approved for use and received significant attention at agricultural fairs for being both innovative and safe.
Every winter, smog, and discussions about its negative impact on health appear, as is the case every year. Scientists identify car transportation as one of the leading causes of smog in cities. But what if cars, instead of polluting, cleaned the air?
Read moreElectric cars still raise safety concerns. However, operating well-designed and manufactured battery electric vehicles (BEVs) is more accessible than gasoline or hybrid cars.
