The world is increasingly turning away from the use of internal combustion engine vehicles, but some companies aim to repurpose the tried and true technology to allow it to live in harmony alongside climate change requisites. One example comes from Astron Aerospace, which unveiled the Omega 1, an engine designed to give internal combustion a…
Large trucks possess the risk of rolling over because of various reasons such as high winds, driver error, or the mistakes of other drives. And when a trailer starts to roll over, it also rolls over the tractor, front cabin section of the truck, by hitching and twisting it, eventually slamming the tractor down. Large…
John Deere has come a long way in its 185 years. Nearly two centuries after it started building steel plows, the well-known farm equipment manufacturer announced at CES 2022 that it has developed technology that fully automates some tractor functions. The company didn’t unveil a fully automated tractor. Instead, it intends to produce kits that can…
When the first hybrid cars hit showrooms roughly two decades ago, they were dismissed as science projects. But now, hybrid powertrains can be found in everything from high-end supercars, to humble taxis, and even in commercial vehicles.Hybrids will become even more common over the next decade or so as automakers go to significant lengths to comply with strict emissions…
Researchers have long been working on finding a way to benefit from temperature differences to produce electricity. And now a group of scientists from Penn State and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory have developed a new flexible thermoelectric generator that can convert wasted heat into electricity by wrapping around hot surfaces like exhaust pipes. A large amount…
Engineers are the inventors, designers, analysers and builders of our modern age. They create the machines, structures and systems we use on a daily basis, most of the time without thinking twice about the work that went into them. The constrains of physics, the confines of the manufacturing technology of the modern age, the limitations…
The electric vehicle industry is looking to solve the problem of rare earth metals, which are increasingly hard to source ethically without sacrificing motor efficiency. BMW fifth generation electric motor which will power its new BMW iX M60 provides a solution that combines an old school sensibility with high tech EV technology to actually improve…
Three former SpaceX engineers launched a company to develop autonomous battery electric trains that they believe can help to improve the efficiency and emissions of railroads, a press statement reveals. The firm, Parallel Systems, recently raised $49.55 million in Series A funds to build autonomous freight trains. The funding will go, in part, towards advanced tests for…
