Moving a large piece of machinery on wheels is easy enough, but how to do it efficiently is a different story altogether. For ...

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 ...

The Toyota GR GT is unlike most cars, even most sports cars. It was engineered in terms of aerodynamics before it was ...

For decades, American manufacturers didn't prioritize aerodynamics when designing production cars, but some exceptions were made, such as these five classics that featured a surprisingly low drag ...

In nature, the most aerodynamic shape is that of a drop of water, which has a coefficient of drag (Cd) of 0.05. Unfortunately, this is not a practical shape for a vehicle. An object's Cd, or how much ...

Formula One’s latest ground-effect era came to an end in Abu Dhabi on Sunday, with the regulations changing dramatically from ...

Whenever the subject of hot cars comes up, the question is always the same: "How fast is it?" But lately, there is a renewed emphasis on top speed. From the days when original hot rodders stripped the ...

In the early 1900s, cars were not designed with particular aesthetics in mind. They were primarily built to be practical and utilitarian. The introduction of the Ford Model T in 1908, the first ...

You can manipulate an interactive model of Doc Brown's time machine using AirShaper, which is a neat aerodynamic-analysis ...
