Brownout for commercial-vehicle electrification? Outsized costs for charging infrastructure could slow implementation of battery-electric CVs. Detailing the 2027 Cummins X15 The next-gen 15-liter diesel engine meets all 2027 EPA emissions regulations while boosting fuel efficiency. Off-highway hybrids are entering prime time Increased performance and lower emissions explain why hybrid technology is an appealing option for certain off-highway vehicles. Just ask John Deere.

The worldwide markets around the globe endure far from meeting the originally arranged primary objective outlined under the Paris Agreement on climate change in 2015: mitigating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to retain global average temperature rise to well below 2°C by 2100 and making every effort to stay below a 1.5°C elevation of the average temperature. Today’s emissions are rebounding from an intermediate decline during the economic downturn related to the implications coming from Covid-19 pandemic. To get back on track with the realization of the targets of the Paris Agreement, research suggests that GHG emissions should be reduced by approx. 50% by 2030 on a guiding trajectory to reach net zero by around mid-century. Although these objectives are all averaged global targets, every sector and country/market need to participate, especially prosperous and more developed countries bear in general the higher responsibility to act.

Kenworth SuperTruck 2 program fuel efficiency and SuperTruck 3 electrification

The proposed optimized piston geometries represent a promising avenue for enhancing the environmental and economic sustainability of DFI engines, paving the way for cleaner and more fuel-efficient engines in the future.

Bullish on CNG for long-haul trucks Fuel system supplier Hexagon Agility is optimistic about the growth of CNG thanks to the introduction of the Cummins X15N engine. Big diesel part of path to zero Volvo Trucks is leading the charge to net-zero emissions by 2050, but will other OEMs follow? Advancing HMI development of ADAS and active safety systems iMotions employs neuroscience and AI-powered analysis tools to enhance the tracking, assessment and design of human-machine interfaces inside vehicles. Catering to off-highway EVs' unique thermal needs Modine exec says EV thermal management systems have evolved significantly from the technology used by ICE vehicles just five years ago.

Explaining MOSA from the Team that Led the Army Aviation Mission Computing Environment Task Order What's the Best DC Motor for Your Commercial Aerospace Application? Aerospace Production: Overcoming Challenges in Composite Machining Understanding the Limits of Artificial Intelligence for Predictive Maintenance Pushing the Limits: Engineering Advanced RF Interconnects to Meet the Challenges of Hypersonic Missile Development Expanding Possibilities for Superconducting Qubits With Niobium Researchers Help Robots Navigate Efficiently in Uncertain Environments A new algorithm reduces travel time by identifying shortcuts a robot could take on the way to its destination.

As the automotive industry focuses on fuel-efficient and eco-friendly vehicles along with reducing the carbon footprint, weight reduction becomes essential.

Perhaps as an aid to encourage more fuel-efficient driving style, many modern motor vehicles are equipped with digital displays of average and instantaneous display of fuel efficiency in miles per gallon (mileage) or liters per 100 kilometers.

The ever-present demand for fuel-efficient and ecologically friendly transport vehicles has heightened awareness of lowering weight and performance development.

Steady-state calibration exercises are undertaken to develop highly fuel-efficient GCI calibration maps at both cold-start and warmed up conditions. A P1 hybrid architecture is proposed to enable the use of an integrated starter generator (ISG) capable of spinning the engine up to idle speeds and an electrically heated ATS for fast heat-up and better thermal management.

Climate change due to global warming calls for more fuel-efficient technologies. Parallel Full hybrids are one of the promising technologies to curb the climate change by reducing CO2 emissions significantly.

Fuel-efficient motorcycles are essential for energy conservation and environmental load reduction. To achieve low fuel consumption, reducing the weight of the body parts of the motorcycle is important.

Fuel cells ready for commercial deployment GM Hydrotec boss says hydrogen fuel cells now are a viable zero-emissions choice for work trucks, other transportation modes. Battery chemistries for construction EVs NMC and LFP lithium-ion batteries find favor in different regions as OEMs move to electrify larger excavators and loaders. Betting big on LFP battery cells for electric CVs Accelera by Cummins, Daimler Truck and Paccar collaborate to establish a 21-GWh dedicated factory in the U.S. with technology partner EVE Energy.

Volvo Trucks enters electrification's next phase With electric trucks already available, the OEM focuses on refining service and maintenance, expanding EV-certified dealerships and scaling production. Why agriculture will automate before on-highway Danfoss' top autonomy executive says automation will help overcome labor and technological challenges that would otherwise leave billions of dollars' worth of crops rotting in fields. Driver-in-the-loop for off-highway development Industrial and agricultural vehicle engineers can draw many of the same benefits from a driving simulator as passenger-car development teams.
