Concept conceived and worked upon by our students Ajit Mohekar, Tanmay Shah, Ramkrishna Patil, and Nikhil Pawar and guided by Prof Pushkaraj D Sonawane and Prof Dr. Sandip T Chavan. The Motorized Retrofitted Tricycle has been designed and fabricated to accommodate a disabled person along with his\/her wheelchair, with a specially designed automated ramp. The vehicle made is unique, cost-effective, and also increases the mobility of the disabled person. By using the vehicle, the disabled person will have benefits in all respects (Education\/Employment\/ Rehabilitation) due to an increase in mobility and that too at an affordable cost.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Such a constructive and cost-effective solution was not available for the mobility of disabled persons, specifically on wheelchairs. This work has tried to address the above issue, having a tremendous social and economic impact.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><strong> <\/strong><strong>Awarded &#8220;First Rank in ME Mechanical Design Engineering, 2000 batch&#8221; at the University of Pune.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><strong> <\/strong><strong>Awarded &#8220;Best Paper Presentation Award&#8221; in National Conference on Advances in Armament Technology, ARDE, Pashan, DRDO, Pune, Nov 21-22, 2008, for the paper titled &#8220;Slender aerodynamic bodies for high-speed armaments.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recipient of prestigious &#8220;GYTI 2016 Award&#8221; at Rashtrapati Bhavan &#8220;Gandhian Young Technological Innovation (GYTI) award 2016&#8221; is awarded by the National Innovation Foundation, Department of Science and Technology, Government of India, at Rashtrapati Bhavan, New Delhi on 13th March 2016. &nbsp; Innovation was shortlisted from 2363 Nominations from across India from 50 Technology domains, which [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-451","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/puskarajdsonawwanay.com\/live\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/451","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/puskarajdsonawwanay.com\/live\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/puskarajdsonawwanay.com\/live\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/puskarajdsonawwanay.com\/live\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/puskarajdsonawwanay.com\/live\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=451"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/puskarajdsonawwanay.com\/live\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/451\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":453,"href":"https:\/\/puskarajdsonawwanay.com\/live\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/451\/revisions\/453"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/puskarajdsonawwanay.com\/live\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=451"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
