Blasting jets of air many times a second from the back of a car is an energy-efficient way of reducing air drag – according to a team of academic and industrial researchers. The team is now doing ...

Tank trailers seldom get aerodynamic treatment. Is it because their basic cylindrical shapes look like they move smoothly through the air? That might not be correct, as there’s still a lot of surface ...

AeroShark, a high-tech surface film developed by Lufthansa Technik and BASF, mimics sharkskin to reduce aerodynamic drag and fuel consumption on aircraft. The nearly invisible coating, featuring ...

Boeing is investigating the use of oscillating jets of air at certain locations on an aircraft wing to significantly reduce drag and consequently boost speed or fuel economy for high speed cruise, ...

This test was in preparation for our upcoming 4.6-liter PI motor buildup. Much like Project Redheaded Step Child (RSC), we set lofty goals for the 4.6. Scratch the word lofty-insert the phrase nearly ...

I'm sure that everyone has at one time or another been caught doing this. It is also possible that your parents told you to stop doing it or bad things were going to happen. Clearly, I am talking ...
