G. Student, Department of Mechanical Engineering, GS Mandal’s- MIT, Aurangabad, Maharashtra, Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University, Aurangabad, Maharashtra, (India) ABSTRACT An Amphibious vehicle is a means of transport, viable on land as well as on water even under water. It is simply may also called as Amphibian. Amphibious vehicle is a concept of vehicle having versatile usage. It can be put forward for the commercialization purpose with respect to various applications like in the field of military and rescue operations. Researchers are working on amphibious vehicle with capability to run in adverse conditions in efficient way. This paper focuses on concept of amphibious vehicle in detail. In later stage of paper we have explain and described the design and analysis of amphibious car. We have followed proper design procedure and enlisted the material used in detail. Capabilities of efficient amphibious vehicle will fulfil all the emerging needs of society. Success of every concept largely relies on research and development, though amphibious vehicle is yet to travel a long journey of innovative development, it has shown excellent potentials for future benefits.

  • Amphibious Vehicle.Pdf
    Amphibious vehicle Introduction A LARC-V 5-ton U.S. amphibious cargo vehicle An amphibious vehicle (or simply amphibian), is a vehicle or craft, that is a means of transport, viable on land as well as on water ± just like an amphibian. This definition applies equally to any land and water transport, small or large, powered or unpowered, ranging from amphibious bicycles, ATVs, cars, buses, trucks, RVs, and military vehicles, all the way to the very largest hovercraft. Classic landing craft are generally not considered amphibious vehicles, although they are part of amphibious assault. Nor are Ground effect vehicles, such as Ekranoplans. The former do not offer any real land transportation at all ± the latter (aside from completely disconnecting from the surface, like a fixed-wing aircraft) will probably crash on all but the flattest of landmasses.

In use since the early 20th century in many armies throughout the world, bicycles allow for silent movement and increased mobility The Bicycle in Wartime: An Illustrated History the battlefield. Additional advantages of military bicycles are that they allow individual soldiers to carry more supplies without being encumbered and are very inexpensive to manufacture and maintain when compared to horses and vehicles. The first bicycles were introduced into the armed forces of several nations in the late 19th century; by the time of the start of World War Iall combatants were using them. The Italian Army 's Bersaglieri mountain troops were the first to use folding bikes. During World War II bicycles were introduced to paratroopers as a means to provide them with transportation following the landing. In the late s and early s, there was a resurgence in the testing of all terrain and folding bikes, for use by infantry in battle and patrolling cities. Some innovations introduced in bicycles designed for military use found The Bicycle in Wartime: An Illustrated History way to civilian markets as well, such as coaster brakes and the cyclometer. In modern times bicycles The Bicycle in Wartime: An Illustrated History electric bicycles are still used by many armies around the world but there are no separate bicycle infantry units.
