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 ...

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 ...

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

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

MV Agusta revives a dual-crank engine design with a radical five-cylinder square concept, proving that internal combustion innovation is alive and well. The square engine layout uses dual crankshafts ...

Combustion engines with an odd number of cylinders are not unheard of but are not particularly common, either. Honda‘s just trotted out an interesting one: A V3, so, two pistons on one side and one on ...

Even as EVs begin to encroach on ICE cars, the development of fuel-burning engines hasn't stopped. With almost 150 years of development in the Otto cycle internal combustion engine, you may think ...
