HYDERABAD
NOV. 25:
The
26th National Convention of Aerospace Engineers, which concluded here on
Sunday, gave a call to industries and the Government to start mapping out a
roadmap for aircraft engine production in India.
In
a resolution, the convention underscored the need to start building a platform
for aircraft engine manufacture at the earliest.
In
another resolution, it wanted identification of some key critical technology in
aerospace products, backed by a realistic time and investment framework.
It
also noted with concern the inadequacy of training manpower in this field,
calling for immediate action for building human capital for aerospace projects.
As
part of this, the convention suggested that the syllabus for aerospace
engineering needed to be periodically reviewed, especially in the field of use
of information technology in simulation models. It gave a call for the industry
to be prepared against cyber warfare threat.
The
Indian aerospace engineering sector achieved a string of successes in the last
ten years, including Agni, Prithvi and Dhanush.
It
is set to further take off with projects such as hypersonic flight vehicle
design and advanced aircraft projects.
The
challenges before the sector include development of advanced auto pilot to
handle critical manoeuvres of the aerospace vehicle, design of advanced
propulsion systems like cryogenic engines and pulse detonation engine for
futuristic flight vehicle design
