Aerodynamic drag reduction remains a pivotal area in automotive design, balancing fuel efficiency with performance and safety. Advances in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modelling, experimental ...

AAs surprising as it may seem, this is a typical road load power required relationship to vehicle speed. As rolling resistance and aerodynamic loading increase, so does the amount of power required to ...

These resistant forces result from friction in mechanical components of the train and the aerodynamic drag of the moving train. As the average traveling speeds of trains have increased, aerodynamics ...

Aerodynamic Drag The more aerodynamic an object is, the more smoothly it goes through the air since there will be less drag.

Scientists in Europe researching aerodynamic forces have opened up some interesting new avenues of study inspired by fish scales. This new understanding of the flow patterns over the surface of the ...

Utility Trailer Manufacturing has introduced the Utility Aerodynamic Tail, designed to improve fuel efficiency. When paired with low rolling resistant tires and configured on a Utility dry van or ...

Adding aerodynamic devices to smooth airflow over the vehicle at highway speeds is a (relatively) cheap and easy way for fleets to improve fuel economy in long-haul tractor-trailer applications. But ...

Aerodynamic add-ons for tractors and trailers can deliver measurable fuel savings and faster ROI. Most solutions are designed for easy installation and minimal maintenance to reduce downtime. Products ...
