One of its first tasks will be analyzing an engine design that eliminates the mechanism linking the crankshaft and camshaft, and controls the valves independently. The valves would, therefore, be more ...

Internal combustion engines are ruling power generation applications even today, and improvising them to churn out every slice of power is still an area of research for the engineering community.

Some agree that batteries are the clear winner in the race against hydrogen technologies, while others think the opposite. There's no such debate among internal combustion engine proponents. Almost ...

NOTE: With this issue of HOT ROD, your Shop Series begins a slightly different and more comprehensive approach to the discussion of engine and vehicle basics. In the coming months, you'll find a frank ...

For more than 100 years, the internal combustion engine (ICE) has been the mechanism of choice for vehicles of all shapes and sizes. Across all configurations, the principle is the same: a mix of fuel ...

A better mousetrap? Even now, as electrification seems poised to end the internal combustion engine’s long run as the transportation motivator of choice, enterprising tinkerers continue to propose ...

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 ...

Mercedes-Benz has been granted a patent for an internal combustion engine that includes a crankshaft, camshaft, cylinder, piston, gas exchange valve, valve clearance compensation device, and a control ...

ICE advances made by Toyota, Subaru, and Mazda. How certain regulations and automaker roadmaps have changed due to slowed EV sales. Just when it seems like electrification has pushed the internal ...

As electrification rises, these 10 high-revving engines—from a 2.0-liter four-cylinder to a 6.5-liter V12—remain thrilling ...
