Sports aerodynamics is a multidisciplinary field that investigates the interactions between air flow and sporting equipment, from balls to bicycles. It encompasses the study of drag, lift and ...
Ferrari has filed a patent describing a predictive control system that anticipates driving conditions and automatically ...
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 ...
When we first saw the original Tesla Cybertruck, we quickly questioned the aerodynamics of its origami wedge shape. That pointy roof looked like a sure-fire turbulence generator, and turbulent flow is ...
Today's Indy cars look drastically different than those that ran in the first Indianapolis 500 in 1911, and that has a lot to do with the series' aerodynamic advancements. The Verizon IndyCar Series ...
High-speed train aerodynamics is a critical field that underpins both the safety and performance of modern rail transportation. As trains operate at increasing speeds, they encounter complex airflow ...
It’s often the little things that, when added together, make the biggest difference in terms of improving the aerodynamic profile of trucks large and small alike. For example, consider Ford Motor ...
To understand how aero works, look to the skies. The same principles that keep aircraft aloft are used to stick cars to the ground. The curved profile of an airplane's wing deflects airflow, forcing ...
For the 2022 season, Formula 1 race cars have aerodynamically smooth wheels, with flat covers attached across the previously open face. Their goal is to reduce the aerodynamic turbulence created by ...
