If your MATLAB is R2016b or later version, you can use erase function, like:
>> str = 'Pdus_ENGINE_PKG_ENGINE_ECU_Stat_PT_SENSOR_Container';
>> erase(str, 'ENGINE_PKG_ENGINE_')
ans =
Pdus_ECU_Stat_PT_SENSOR_Container

thank u Akira. but Erase is not working. it is showing erase is a undefined function or variable in R2016a.
@GADIDHIMI SAI KUMAR BABU: Did you see Akira's hint: "If your MATLAB is R2016b or later version ..."? erase works with the modern string class only.
