Pickup trucks have never been more central to American driving, yet their boxy shapes still fight the air at highway speeds.

Stellantis has patented a dynamic "Angled Bed Cap" that makes a pickup's bed aerodynamic on command. We explore how this ...

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 ...

Stellantis has patented an angled truck bed cap that automatically tilts a tonneau cover to reduce drag and improve ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

GREENSBORO, N.C. — The gas price saga is stop-and-go. America slowly pumps the brakes on record-shattering prices but has faced road blocks rolling the burden to a stop. Yes, the gas hack claim is ...

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 ...

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 ...
