The overall goal of the project was to perform benchmarking on the door systems of two competitor vehicles and to design a system which could help in finding the minimum door closing energy using spring energy method. This is done to verify whether the door systems of the competitor vehicles are meeting the standards set by Tata Motors. The project involved designing a novel set-up for determining the door closing energies of the different vehicles and then carrying out the tests.
