Generative design helps engineers explore design, delivering 30-50% faster time-to-market, 10-50% weight reductions, and up ...

The two proposed adaptive engines that might one day power the Next Generation Air Dominance fighter have passed an important design review, and Pratt & Whitney and GE Aerospace are each proceeding to ...

Intake, compression, power, then exhaust. Every 4-stroke engine ever made – about 80% of all engines currently in existence – function on this principle – even rotary engines. But now, Porsche has ...

Variable cycle engine design embodies a transformative approach in aero‐propulsion, enabling engines to adapt their thermodynamic cycle to meet diverse operational demands, from fuel efficiency to ...

Contemplating the advantages of the pushrod-actuated overhead valve engine design in what appears to be the twilight of internal combustion might sound as anachronistic as a quick look at the value of ...

With a slogan like “The Future is Ecclectic,” we’d expect some interesting things from INNengine, a startup based in Spain. The company is showcasing a “one-stroke” engine that works as an opposed ...

While adoption rates for electric vehicles may be on the rise, automakers aren't quite ready to part with internal-combustion engines. For some companies like Porsche, research into new ...

Ferrari is exploring a groundbreaking approach to the internal combustion engine, as revealed by a recent European patent filing. Departing from the industry-standard round pistons, this new design ...

When learning about the design of a machine or mechanism, reading and watching videos is certainly effective, but it’s hard to beat hands-on experimentation. In the video after the break, [Brick ...

Two-stroke engines have steadily fallen out of favor over the last 50 years or so. While they sport great power-to-weight ratios and are often much simpler mechanically than their four-stroke ...

All too often when traveling and teaching engine company operations around the country, I’m amazed at the varying layouts of engines. Whether I’m impressed or shocked, I often will ask, “Why did you ...
