If you think direct-injection diesel engines made their debut in the 1980's, think again. The first diesel without extra ...

Combustion optimisation in direct injection (DI) diesel engines seeks to enhance fuel–air mixing, improve thermal efficiency and mitigate pollutant formation within increasingly stringent ...

However, not all innovations are equal, and nor do they follow a constant upward trend. Instead, their evolution takes the form of an S-shaped curve that reflects their typical lifecycle from early ...

The once-almighty Mitsubishi Motors may have relegated themselves to building cheap small cars and Nissan-derived crossovers, but it was an indomitable powerhouse of innovation back in the day.

The 6.7L Cummins inline-six diesel has powered pickup trucks for 30+ years, evolving from 5.9L origins to today's 430hp Ram ...

Fuel injection dynamics underpin the performance, efficiency and emissions profile of modern diesel engines. Central to this process is the controlled delivery of liquid fuel under high pressure into ...

Diesel engines lack the spark of gas engines, both literally and figuratively. They don't need a spark plug since they ignite the fuel using only compression, but also lack the 'je ne sais quoi' that ...

With the Car and Driver Ten Best decided, the North American Car and Truck of the Year finalists announced and Cadillac, Ram and Subaru chalking up wins with Motor Trend, it’s fair to say that the ...

The study reveals the mechanisms behind wall film formation, a key contributor to particulate matter emissions under cold fuel conditions The growing concerns about air pollution and its harmful ...

When Rudolf Diesel (yes, really) first conceived of a design for a sparkplugless engine that used heat and compression to ignite fuel in each cylinder, he was chasing a theoretical design premise ...
