Aviation currently contributes about 2.5% of total global carbon emissions, and with air travel demand expected to double by 2040, cutting those emissions has become a pressing priority. One path forward is sustainable aviation fuel, […]

Major Western ride-hailing platforms like Uber and Lyft sketched a gradual path toward introducing self-driving cars at this week’s Web Summit in Lisbon, with infrastructure, developing regulation and passengers’ preference for human contact weighing on […]

Picture an electric car that could go 600, 700 or even 1,000 miles on a single charge. That’s much farther than the longest-range electric vehicles on the U.S. market, according to Car and Driver magazine—and […]

Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) has developed a method to automate the calibration of heavy-duty diesel truck emissions control systems using machine learning and algorithm-based optimization. The latest diesel aftertreatment systems often take weeks to calibrate. […]

Hypersonic planes could fly from Sydney to Los Angeles in just an hour. What’s standing in the way of such ultra-fast planes becoming reality is our understanding of how the turbulence they generate as they […]

A research team has developed an extrapolation-based Doppler resolution enhancement algorithm for frequency modulated continuous wave radars. The algorithm improves system performance, offering an advancement that is superior to existing ultra-high-resolution technologies.This article was originally […]

The Société de transport de Montréal (STM), the city’s urban transit authority, plans to make its network completely electric by 2040 by adding 140 electric buses to its fleet annually to meet this target. It’s […]

Car enthusiasts will pay hundreds of dollars for stereo systems that will improve the sound quality in their cars. However, the inherent directionality of speakers and complex shapes of car cabins can exacerbate sound disparities […]

By using two propellers that rotate in opposite directions, a ship can use less energy to move forward. New knowledge means that more ships can use the technology, including Hurtigruten’s Sea Zero project for its […]

Manufacturing sustainable aviation fuel with CO₂ byproducts of ethanol production could reduce carbon intensity by more than 80% compared to fossil fuels.This article was originally published here
