Deformation control volumes are set for the front sensor, front-side sensor, roof sensor, and rear-side sensor, which significantly impact the aerodynamic drag coefficient. The sensor shapes can be ...

Some cars slice the air. These legendary bricks fight it, from vintage icons to modern track monsters, proving style and ...

The Science of Velocity and the Barrier of Entry Aerodynamic wheels are characterized by their “deep-section” rims, which typically range from 40mm to over 80mm in depth. Unlike traditional shallow ...

Among the sciences and practices involved in building an automobile, aerodynamics is one of the most important. Creating a car that can efficiently cut through or manipulate the air around it is a ...

Trailer aerodynamics devices can improve fuel efficiency by 1% to 10%. The gap between the trailer and tractor, the underbody, and the rear of the trailer are three areas ripe for drag reductions. A ...

The electrification of the trucking industry is attracting a lot of publicity as a way for fleets to decrease fuel costs and improve their environmental performance, but this transition is poised to ...

Researchers focus on enhancing the aerodynamic performance of autonomous vehicles by reducing drag induced by externally mounted sensors such as cameras and light detection and ranging instruments.
