UPES Participates at Auto Expo 2020
UPES showcased several engineering marvels created by its students at Auto Expo, 2020, Noida.
The following were the inventions displayed at the event by the Department of Mechanical
Engineering: A Campus Utility Vehicle with a BLDC 1.2 kW motor, 48V Controller module, 85
A-HR 48V Li-ion Battery and IOT Module; an Electric Bicycle designed, fabricated and tested
with the objective of low-cost and low-maintenance (the E-Cycle is an innovative solution to the
persisting problem of emissions); and many more.

Break In: Nitro RC Championship at UPES
The Mechanical Department of School of Engineering, UPES, organised the inaugural Nitro RC
Championship on the sports ground of Bidholi campus in Dehradun. The event featured a designing
and performance competition for 1/8 scale RC Nitro Cars. A dozen teams from different colleges of
India and UPES competed through multiple rounds.
The finale saw a simultaneous race between four teams for the course of three laps with an additional
penalty for exceeding the track boundaries and/or skipping the obstacles. At the close, between all the
finalists, the results boiled down to the difference of just two seconds between the first placed team—
Team MRC-O, MRC Club, Mumbai and the first runner-up—Team Ryuu, UPES Dehradun.

International Conference on `Advances in Chemical
Engineering 2020´
