Automotive engineering' , along with aerospace engineering and marine engineering , is a branch of vehicle engineering , incorporating elements of mechanical , electrical , electronic , software and safety engineering as applied to the design, manufacture and operation of motorcycles , automobiles , buses and trucks and their respective engineering subsystems.
Some of the engineering attributes and disciplines that are of importance to the automotive engineer and many of the other aspects are included in it:
Safety engineering : Safety engineering is the assessment of various crash scenarios and their impact on the vehicle occupants. These are tested against very stringent governmental regulations. Some of these requirements include: seat belt and air bag functionality testing, front and side impact testing, and tests of rollover resistance. Assessments are done with various methods and tools, including Computer crash simulation (typically finite element analysis ), crash test dummies , and partial system sled
